Hopefully she won't be back Anubis, at least not until (or unless) they re-instate guest posting. B)

At risk of polluting this topic with irrelevance; does anyone have any up to date information on the health of Mary Travers?

I heard she had fully recovered and played her first show in a long time in early December 2005. According to the official site, they have about 7 shows coming up, so it doesn't look like she'll be departing anytime soon.

 

Then again, Harold Pinter has somewhat of a calendar too, and I've put my joker on his dying. Hell, even John Kenneth Galbraith was doing university speeches last year, and just last month he had time to bitch about conservatives. ;)

Carnegie Hall on December 9th, I think our Eastern Seaboard US posters should attend in the hope of watching an early Christmas present for us all.

I may be ugly, but I'll be damned if I'm fat and rude.

Because there'll always be someone on this planet even more desperate and uninspired than she is!

Uzed kids....

 

Not nice to trash us old folks.

 

Especially those we really admire.

 

PP&M were REALLY important in the early, mid-60s...I saw them many times in concert. And they'd perform before a crowd of 15,000 and then sit down informally on the floor with 30 or 40 teenagers/college kids and talk religion and politics.

 

May Mary get well.

 

May we not lose ALL the idealism reflected in their renditions of the Pete Seeger/Bob Dylan classics.

Looks like they're still going reasonably strong with a full 2006 tour ahead of them but MT could still be a possibility for 2007.

Funnily enough Val Doonican is still touring too.

 

Could we see a revival of Puff the Magic Dragon? I would love to have heard a Sex Pistols version:

 

 

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea

And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee.

Arts institutes and regional theatres on their very brief 'fall tour'; it's death in a manner of speaking.

More like Peter, Paul and Jabba, judging by the photo.

 

 

Ouch! Thats a good one honez. They really do look alike side by side

 

What you got against Jabba?

Hello babuon, welcome to the forum. Reporting this won't make a bit of difference to me, however, If you really want to post a picture, this MIGHT hopefully help. Looking forward to seeing it

There's been a very good version recently by Will Oldham, aka Bonnie Prince Billy

Sometimes Hein it's as if words in a sentence have more meaning to you, then they would to any other member.

I look great at the moment, thanks; but no-one gives a sh*t.

True, it isn't always the case, but today I'm feeling quite happy. It is the weekend after all.

Considering my age and sedentary habits, I don't look too bad, I think.

I don't know who gives a sh*t. Some do, some don't.

 

Peace and joy to all.

How do we look?

 

Every single avatar on display hereabouts looks better than Mary Travers in her current state, end of as far as I'm concerned.
