Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday--MAX DYLAN SPIEGEL From: Roger in Baltimore Date: 28 Apr 02 - 09:43 AM Happy Birthday, Max. Marge and I have a futon on the floor for you when you hit Baltimore. I don't mind being late anymore. I'd much rather be Roger in Baltimore, late, than the late Roger in Baltimore. Growing older sure beats the alternative! Big RiB |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday--MAX DYLAN SPIEGEL From: GUEST,karen k Date: 26 Apr 02 - 12:23 AM Well, the 2 things I like best on this post are what Watson said, "Max has the birthday and we all get the gift." Wish I had thought of that. The other is the octave celebration because without it I would have missed this thread and I would have been most disappointed. So, a huge belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! I know I was 30 once but I don't remember much about it. At least you are at the end of a decade. That always makes me "feel" better about changing decades. Hope you had a great day, my best for many more, thank you for all you've brought into my life and so many others and I can't wait to see you at the Getaway. Why not come to Old Songs - June 28-30th? karen |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday--MAX DYLAN SPIEGEL From: DonD Date: 25 Apr 02 - 11:13 PM Talk about being late--I didn't discover Mudcat until I was 73! And I visualized the legendary Max as somebody like Pete Seeger's much older brother, that I could look up to with proper respect. I don't waste no Happy Birthday on 30 year olds! Come see me in another twenty years! |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday--MAX DYLAN SPIEGEL From: WyoWoman Date: 25 Apr 02 - 09:34 PM Oh, hell. Let's just call it MaxWeek and keep the sloppy sentimentalism pouring in. You've done a righteous thing, Mr. Spiegel. Many people live an entire lifetime without doing a righteous thing. And here you are, a mere sprout of 30, already accomplished in the righteous-thing department. Awesome work. My chicks hatched yesterday -- 16 of them so far -- and I'm going to call them all Max, in honor. Come see me when you take your Pub and Sofa World Domination Tour and I'll serve you the freshest omelet you ever done et. Love you, Babe, WyoWomanWhoNowLivesinKansasButWho'sKeepingTrack? |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday--MAX DYLAN SPIEGEL From: GUEST,micca at work Date: 25 Apr 02 - 04:26 AM Max this shoulda gone in yesterday, but this D***ed machine wouldn't play, and worse wouldnt e-mail the message to my home machine so I could post it there!! so " h3>Max, Happy Birthday, 30!!!!!!! Shhhheessh! thats NO age...you are just a young'un. and to have completed you most important work already!! It was a great pleasure to meet and hang out with you, mate, you have what very very few achieve, friends and supporters all over the world, who appreciate and value your work (they will not admit this, and take the piss unmercifully) but when the chips are down, they are right there for you and for each other, and there are very few who can say that about their work, that they have raised the level of compassion, sharing, knowledge and enjoyment in the world." |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday--MAX DYLAN SPIEGEL From: CapriUni Date: 24 Apr 02 - 11:30 PM My mom instituted a tradition in our family -- she said it was based on how the Catholic church celebrated Saints' birthdays -- and if it was good enough for saints, it was good enough for her (my mom had many fabulous qualities, modesty was not one of them ;-)): The Octave, or celebrating for 8 days. Namely, the eve before and the week after. Considering how much of a service Max has provided to a musical community, an octave celebration is particularly appropriate. The only question is, what key? ;-) Happidle Birdledadle, Max! |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday--MAX DYLAN SPIEGEL From: Bonnie Shaljean Date: 24 Apr 02 - 08:29 PM Somebody in the pub tonight (from whence I've just returned) said it's Barbra Streisand's birthday too, and that she's 60 - is that true? True or not, everyone at the session sends their best to you, Max.

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday--MAX DYLAN SPIEGEL From: KT Date: 24 Apr 02 - 02:31 PM Max, I wonder if you have any idea just how many wonderful friendships have formed because of this place you've created? I mean, really, it's not unusual for me to be going about my business in my daily life, and come upon a situation where I'll wonder what So-and-so Mudcatter would have to say about that? People I've never met!!! It still amazes me! Thanks Max!! And best wishes for a wonderful year!! KT PS It's always good to hear from you. Why not post more often?

Before Mudcat, Rick would inevitably groan "Omigawd, you're NOT watching THAT crap. (everything that isn't sports, a documentary, or British Comedy is 'crap' to him) Now he just toodles upstairs and I can watch 'Judging Amy' in peace. Thanks. Heather |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday--MAX DYLAN SPIEGEL From: Big Mick Date: 24 Apr 02 - 11:50 AM 30 years old, eh buddy? You are edging ever closer to the "Land of Never Passing a Bathroom without going in". Bald spots, 12 year old daughters, debt................and its all downhill from here.........hahahahahahahahaha. That is all a load of old shite, my friend. I am 51, and I can't wait to grow up! Just keep it between the ditches, stop every so often and get to know the locals, never lose your curiosity, and enjoy. Why do I sing? Because there are people like you in the world. In fact, I sing because you, specifically, are in the world. Happy Birthday and I will see you soon. Oh........yeah..........the fish are biting. Mick |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday--MAX DYLAN SPIEGEL From: artbrooks Date: 24 Apr 02 - 11:29 AM Well, gee...having found this message rather late in the process, there isn't a lot that hasn't been said. Congratulations, and thank you for bringing us the Mudcat...and also for lowering the average age of the participants. |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday--MAX DYLAN SPIEGEL From: Max Date: 24 Apr 02 - 11:24 AM Oh, and my daughter is great. Our relationship has never been stronger. She's doing good in school, she's healthy and happy, has good friends and a great dad... Took her to see Martin Sexton a couple of weeks ago. Already got her hooked on folk rock and Leadbelly. Now if we could just get rid of this Justin Timberlake thing, we'll be OK. |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday--MAX DYLAN SPIEGEL From: SINSULL Date: 24 Apr 02 - 11:21 AM 30? The first thing that came to mind was "Don't trust anyone over thirty." Jerry Rubin??? Happy birthday, Max. They get easier as you get older. |
