Earthgirl and me and Hamster saw a Richard Thompson Band concert at the Senator Theater in Govans in 1996, closed the second set with Shoot Out the Lights, one of the best nights of my life.
Another one of the best nights of my life, I was there for this, serendipitously my relationship with Blondie was falling apart as Richard and Linda screamed at each other between songs:

- Foodopoly.
- What Americans believe.
- Police state.
- You have the right to go home to your family.
