Subject: RE: Getaway 2007
I'd just like to put in my 2 cents about high points.

Aside from getting my Jan to sing a duet with me at mikes, which she says she hasn't done ever before--"Cicadas" wasn't really singing, I'll have to admit--2 highlights stand out.

1) As others have mentioned, "Kendall Morse and the Kitchen" at the humorous songs workshop--just an absolutely magnificent parody. Proving that Sinsull is a wonderful wordsmith, Gordon Bok has a great sense of humor, and Kendall is a great sport. (Not that any of that was in doubt.) Just too bad it wasn't recorded for posterity--and YouTube.

2) Ironman Amos, having just flown out from the left coast--analogous to flying to the UK, which always knocks me out for 2 or 3 days--at about 2 AM Saturday, making up spontaneous--and good--blues verses about lighthouses--complete with double entendres. And Joe gamely smiling.

And I'm sure there are lots of other highlights I've left out.
