All sorts of things come down here: clothing, space aliens, rain – both threatening rain and the Advent coming down of righteous rain. The Kinks and Dylan, of course, and also Lennon, Randy Newman, one of those comic songs of the 50s, a bawdy song, some peaceful Japanese music, a song from Eastmountainsouth and a Gregorian Chant. Readings and reflections on RLS, James Joyce, Dante, Cyrano de Bergerac, and others. Come on down and join us!
