[kj] OT Citizen Cain'd

[Alexander Smith]

Arrrgh! Don't tell me that. I was *SO* looking forward to it.

I have to say, I even thought INTERPRETER was pretty weak. The Brain 
Donor stuff left me pretty cold as well. There were some fine moments 
on 20 MOTHERS, but it's been strictly downhill ever since. I was hoping 
that CITIZEN CAIN'D (and really....what an antiquated reference...it's 
like making Clinton jokes) would break the trend.

I do highly recommend the LIVE JAPAN `91, disc....y'know, back from 
when his music was worth listening to.

Sorry to hear it.
