I'm just hanging on the floor at Grand Central Station waiting to head over for night number 2 at the Bowery. I was thinking some about "amazing grace" that we butchered last night in the encore (as only our band can)...and thinking that i'm glad about it because sometimes screwing something up is the only way to get your own attention. Happy thanksgiving..glad to be back on the board, it's been a while. Happy thanksgiving!</p> <p>SK </p> http://sk6ersfans.com/topic/hi#post-2038 Tue, 11 Dec 2007 20:31:31 +0000 AnthemSoSweet 2038@http://sk6ersfans.com/ <p>BOOTS!</p> <p>Now that the tour has come to a close - care to share the pre-show playlist?
