Hello everybody,
Great to hear of all the great North American gigs and all the comments being posted to the list - keep it up - even if it is nearly impossible to keep pace with all the traffic.
This posting reminded me of another aspect of the wheel - that it had several blank pots marked by "hands" and if you spun the wheel and it landed on a hand - you got to choose your own song from those on the wheel - or maybe even something else.
Did anyone on the list (or anyone they know) ever get to choose a song? and what did they choose?
Cheers,
Richard

      I must admit i really miss the wheel.As outstanding as the oils are live i thought that the wheel just added something extra in atmosphere to the gig.I think it was the knowing there was a chance of hearing something you'd never heard them play live before like 'is it now?' and 'somebody's trying to tell me something' which i heard among among other rarities for the first and only time thanks to the wheel.
