No you're not an idiot at all....you at least give an address I'm sure
George just says...
"look for the big white house with the nice lawn"

Rogers,

> Leighton was allowed a vocal mike, so you've got to know there was much
> hilarity on stage.
>        During the second set, Kevin invites guests up to play.
>        So, it's music for grownups (although my 13-year-old daughter loved
> it), and it starts at 8.30. It's pwyc, and they pass a jar around, and the
> room is lovely.
>           Highly recommended.
