From MSN-CNET:

Wi-Fi lessons learned in Tempe.

Well I can certainly concur that the WAZTempe network sucks ass. Not through lack of trying, I wasn unable to connect to it once. Inside, outside, on the top of the buttes, nothing made a difference.

Interesting to see the article right after getting back though!

Post Mexico, I'm glad to have the Johnny Hickman live show I downloaded last year (opening for the Peacemakers). I've definately had some jonesin' for Hickman tunes. My awesome girlfriend has brought me Palmhedge, but pending the arrival of that (or her being done with it herself [wink] ) having this show rocks. I'd listened to it once, but not gotten around to listening to it again.

Particularly I enjoy Lucky - such a relatable song. [smile] Actually, I remember saying exactly what does Lucky does 6 years ago. And is ever true right now. Great, great song - definantely one of my favorites at the moment. Listening to it totally takes me back to being at the Sunset Cantina lot in Mexico, dark had fallen and David and Johnny were doing the song. Which certainly also adds to listeneing to it. The rest of the show, even the songs I'm not familar with are really listenable. Johnny is quite impressive.

I must say, I can't wait to hear The Great Decline again, which isn't on this live recording.

Not to be cliche, but I feel pretty lucky that I got to see Johnny both at Last Exit with Steve, and in Mexico with Lowery!
