Man oh man, if Eno and Byrne came to the Twin Cities, I would be there in flash! To see Eno actually performing would truly be "once in a lifetime!"

Darn, didn't read the enoweb disclaimer at the bottom. No Eno on the tour. Grrr... Still, it will be interesting to hear the new album. MLITBOG is one of my all-tme favorites, especially "Regiment"
