I enjoyed that anecdote, as I'm currently waiting for the man. ------Original Message------ From: Michael Adelsheim To: rob@splitsville.com To: audities@smoe.org Subject: RE: John Edwards Sent: Jan 29, 2010 9:47 AM Politician with cool taste is music? I'm not sure this qualifies, but back during the Clinton administration, they hosted Vaclav Havel (President of Czechoslovakia) to some big state dinner. Since there had been a longtime connection between Havel and Lou Reed, the latter was invited to perform at some point in the evening. The NPR reviewer reporting on this the next day said she ducked under the table to look, and the only one tapping his foot - yes in time! - to Lou's music was Al Gore. Again, I'm not sure what that proves, but....

I'm sure former. Never liked him, but hey, I'm a Republican. His wife may have been a stone cold bitch behind closed doors. Who knows? Can't give him a pass for what he did, however. Looking forward to the day when a politico actually has cool taste in music. They're like athletes for the most part. How many douchebag MLB'ers have I seen come up to the plate to Nickelback's "Rock Star"? Denver's mayor John Hickenlooper intro'd X when they played the Bluebird Theater. And he ran a brewery.

I actually kind of choose my friends based on if they are fans of Dave Matthews or not. I haven't broken any friendships because of it but I keep a close eye when I am around "those" people and I do not really trust them. > > : ) > > Scott Homewood > Ah, excellent!
