Hi

I have some more pictures, with Julie, Chris, Peter, Petra and Matthew. But I am not sure if they want me to post them, I´ll check before.

Is the Klausi photo ever going to appear? He´s always been very sweet to me and I´ve been looking forward to seeing his face, which at the moment I can only imagine.

Oh... Well definately there is his face on that picture, but I would not say that it portrais him. But he told me I can upload it...

LOL Klausi, you always make me laugh.

Please will you tell me something? In the fan database you say that you "use" the guitar but you can´t "play" it? What do you use your guitar for, or is that some sort of German boys´ joke that I don´t understand??

I`m not a good player, never had lessions.

Always need a "Kapodaster" (don`t know whether this word is ok in English), cannot "Barre". Only use three or four fingers of the right hand. I can play the regular chords for "Fifty ways to leave your lover" in the original sheet-book of "Still crazy", but it is also my limit.

50 Ways is rather a sophisticated chord progression so you must have a good musical heart even if your fingers aren´t as clever as your heart! A Kapodaster is called a capo in English, though it´s really an Italian word, I think.

Thank you very much! I wish we had met 20 pounds/years ago, when "I was still single, and life was great".

But I think life now is great too. Now I am oftenly listening to the concert at the place in the US where all these bootlegs come from, and I am convinced, that Paul Simon is the best (Rock-)musician in the world.

As I liked "One man ceiling" in the 2000 shows I even more like Duncan in 2006. A really great song, almost surrealistic, compared to his other "serious" Love songs at the time as Congratulations, Something So Right, Tenderness, and later Hearts And Bones and Graceland with a personal background.

One should make a movie about this song, starting with problems to sleep becauce of a couple in the next room making sex and having it for the first time with a young girl singing sacred songs from the bible (!); and afterwards thanking the Lord for having this night and his fingers playing his guitar. Very daring and unusual in 1972, timeless.
