Michael and Richard will be taping at Austin City Limits at the end of the month. Michael has asked if I would like to come to the taping. I lived in Austin for ten years and never did get to go to a taping although it was a goal of mine since the first day I got there. So without sounding too excited about it, I informed him that I was planning on being in Austin for a week or two around that time anyway and it would be really "nice" to come to the studio and see him play in front of millions of Americans.

I was very excited when I heard that Michael would be playing with the Blind Boys of Alabama on David Letterman last May 7th. I reminded myself daily to watch or record that show.

I forgot.

But I won't miss this ACL show.
