From what I've read from him in other places, Dick's unwilling to jump through the hoops that my government has set for visiting performers. Whatever the reason - and it may be prudent to not continue this in a thread advertising a gig - I don't really blame him. Two days before terrorists changed everything, and I remember saying, "I just hope Bush doesn't get us into a war." The rest of his tour must have been sheer hell.

I miss the opportunity to see him, so enjoy his concerts when you have the chance.
