Nuthin' to flame, just different strokes, I guess. I've had the CD for a
couple of weeks and really love it, so I came to the show with an a priori
appreciation of the songs. I can see where you're coming from with respect
to the "rock star" trappings of his set, but I was able to divorce myself
from that and just enjoy the songs.
