one of my very favorite Seger songs - -  would second that

Against the Wind  - - - another one would love to see Taylor interpret  & he might relate to the lyrics

Taylor has done Main Street already so wonder if that might be a "sure thing"  option ? ?



Just for the heck of it I went through all the Playlists Taylor has done for things like Sirius, Rhapsody - - - -

there were the ones that struck me as stool songs

I Shall Be Released         Bob Dylan  [shows up twice]  
this is my "please someday" song I guess  - cannot seem to let go of it

Scenes From An Italian Restaurant    Billy Joel
now this would be an unexpected one but think Taylor would do an excellent job with it

Am I Blue        Ray Charles
just because I'm selfish, love the song and it was there   


This next one is not for the stool - - it is just a fun song that is on his MTV list and I like to see Taylor show that side of his personality

You Can Call Me Al    Paul Simon  

it reminds me of Phil Collins' s Wear My Hat   the lyrics are funny but oh so pointed

This is too much fun - - do we have to stop  

     I was wondering if there is a picture of the stool all done?
     Can it be posted before giving it to him? I won't get to see it up close because I'm not attending the R.I. show.   If not it's ok.



    Hey if you can't post it now it will be a perfect excuse for me
    to wave a big sign at the Portland show saying.....Guys I need to  
    get up on stage so I can take a close up look of that stool.
                                                                         


    
            

The stool should be finished tomorrow - - nothing like last minute lucys here...

Grimsby has taken photos of it in every stage and is writing a story to go with it. I'm sure she will share with you all - either before or after the RI show.

THANKS FOR THE UPDATE AMYREBO
I'LL KEEP MY EYES OPEN FOR IT.

OK - I just printed off the letter and it looks beautiful. It's very simple, yet sort of elegant looking.

Do you think I can get a stupid envelope to print out?

I think I've got a fine point black marker here somewhere. I'm just going to write his name on it with my best handwriting (which is pretty good). Like it or lump it, Taylor.

       Oh Amybero put some hot red lipstick on, wait first lick the envelope shut then put lipstick on and seal it with a big red one. Yours truely NESP.

Ha ha - I didn't think of doing that...

But I don't want to scare him!!!

My items for the CONCORD New England themed food and goodie and misc. items masculine gift buckets:

I bought four packages of Pepperidge Farm (company in CT) Nantucket cookies...two for the band/crew bucket and 2 for Taylor's bucket. The darndest thing is they changed the packaging and they are no longer called "Nantucket" so the band won't get the NE connection but I guarantee they will make short order of the cookies!
I bought 2 boxes of Salt Water Taffy....one for each bucket....there is a little story on the box about how it's a New England coastal treat and for many years people have brought it back as a "souvenier" from trips to NE beaches and the box has a lighthouse and a NE coastal scene on it.

I will bring this stuff to Margarita's before the show!

Andrea, awesome job with the goodies!  (I'm a Tahoe girl myself...)

Just a reminder to everyone else...

If you plan on contributing to the boxes, please bring your "regional snack foods" to the preparty at Margarita's (which I'm pretty sure starts at 4 PM on Friday, even tho I will be late, as usual).  Trishie's been working her butt off decorating them and I think she's even making custom confetti in NESP colors!  So now we gotta fill 'em up and feed our boys... so they keep coming back.  Kinda like that hedgehog in my back yard.

I'm just wondering if, with all the salt water taffy, I ought to give them a couple tubes of toothpaste from Sheffield Tube of New London, CT!
