elliot - at least I am sympathetic. I missed the tucson concert for a really stupid reason and I'm really bummed about it. sigh.

i followed love here three years ago and i haven't regretted it since. 4 year anniversary next month as a matter of fact. I didnt think i was going to like the city at all because i never even thought of visiting here and then that damned love thing happened. I spent the first two months in the apartment for fear of getting lost on the subways trying to find work but after a while of doing nothing (and all my savings slipping away into rent) i ventured out and got life in gear. And now i love it here. i would still like to try living in Europe for a while but thats a few years off. I must say that 2 of the things i miss about appleton though is 1. Peggy's restaurant on college ave in downtown and 2. the drive thru Jo-to-Go between wisc and college ave. They have the best snickers frap ever. Nothing like it in the world.
sure, i know of new london... although, i can't help but think of appleton as a strange city... i like checkin' out the records at exclusive in the northland mall... i got the first CASTOR cd there two years after it went outta print and jeff garber or GEMM.COM couldn't even help me get a copy of it !!!
so how'd you end up in nyc ?
actually i grew up in New London WI, that is a town of all of 8000. everything we did growing up was in appleton and after high school thats where i moved before moving to a town of 8 mill. but i still love appleton. I go back as often as money allows. Nice people.
i'm a wisconsinite as well who will actually be married in appleton in june... adam, are you an appleton native ??
thanks for your quick and courteous response
dear wisconsinite, Idaho actually has a page dedicated to listing future concerts, i knew about the NYC concert at least 6 weeks before they came plus Idaho does have a mailing list, I'm sure that since you posted your e-mail above, dale or john will add you to it. But it's always been listed under the tour dates section on the main page. don't hate me now. i come from Appleton and i know how impossible it was to see them, i had to wait 6 years, until i moved here. i think they even mentioned under one of these hundred topics that they'll be doing a small tour later this year to promote the new album so you may be in luck, and not have to wait 6 years. :)
I missed an Idaho concert, and I kick myself in the side of the head every time I listen to levitate and then collapse into a comatose bliss. I live in milwaukee, you see, and didn't realize there was an Idaho concert taking place until two days after it. Needless to say i was pretty steamed. Perhaps I was just very un-observant, or something, but It would have been nice to have known about it. Perhaps if Idaho advertised their concerts more (if possible) or had a mailing list I could get on, this could be prevented.
