INANITY, THY NAME IS ME:

Liam's back, for the second and (sadly) final time this summer. The first five songs (which, including all the wacky interstitial banter, took up the full first half-hour) were his choice. The rest were hurriedly hashed together by me in the rather crazed atmosphere of the studio, being further visited by a friend from the theatre and by a stray black cat, which accounts for the rather high number of songs that had been played in earlier shows, not that anyone notices nor cares. (Any significance to the fact that the temperature was exactly 66.6 degrees through most of the show? No, of course not, you nit.)
