   I'm impressed.  But I'm almost settled into my house and tackling my second grad school class so that's my excuse :-)  Seriously, I'm working on a revamp of this web site (cosmetic only, no major content or purpose changes, still just for my own fun & enjoyment as well as a place to show the world how nuts I can be :-) so most of the pages are not available for now.  But this one and the ones which are "done" will be open and I'll add more as I get them reformatted.  Take care, peace out! </div> <bR> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 475 WIDTH="496"><div> <B>August 4</b></div> <div> 12:00  I just added a page for the Tommy James show in 6 days...  Can't wait!!  So now the countdown is </div> <div> 1 days to my house inspection</div> <div> 6 days to the next KASIM experience in Des Moines (Tommy James & the Shondells at the Iowa State Fair)</div> <div> 24 days until I take possession of my house</div> <div> 26 days until the moving van rolls up and I start the new adventure of home ownership...</div> <bR> <div> <B>August 2</b></div> <div> 06:00  So many countdowns going through my mind...  </div> <div> 3 days to my house inspection</div> <div> 8 days to the next KASIM experience in Des Moines (Tommy James & the Shondells at the Iowa State Fair)</div> <div> 26 days until I take possession of my house</div> <div> 28 days until the moving van rolls up and I get to create my little home away from...  nothing!  It's my little home!!</div> <div> And an hour until I have to be at work so that's all for now...</div> <bR> <div> <B>July 19</b></div> <div> 15:45 Finally updated the <A HREF="id49.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Kasim In/Near OMAHA!!!!!!!!!"><U>Kasim In/Near Omaha</U></A> page with photos from "my" Meat Loaf concert...</div> <bR> <div> <B>July 14</b></div> <div> Had a wonderful chat @ the Yahoo board with Kasim today.  He was a DOLL and skipped a trip to the Mt Rushmore monument to be with us.  Something like 25 people dropped by to say hi and ask him questions about the upcoming tour.</div> <bR> <div> <B>July 9</b></div> <div> <B>K-DAY!!</b>  Class is over, Kasim played a wonderful set tonight (thanks for the Sacrifice, man!)  Patti jammed with the NE, and the whole Meat Loaf gang ROCKED Council Bluffs.  More later...</div> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 598 WIDTH="496"><div> <B>June 23</b></div> <div> 15:00  I updated the information about Kasim's upcoming gig in Omaha.  It's been moved to Council Bluffs, not exactly sure why but it's only about 4 miles away so you can still count on a report from the front :-)</div> <bR> <div> <B>June 11</b></div> <div> 06:15  We had a wonderful chat with Kasim Sunday night.  He took time out of a busy schedule to visit with some 20-30 fans who asked him about the CD, Rex Rundgren, and so much more.  Kasim was his usual jovial self, trading jokes with Doug Kennedy and even telling us about the time his leg started to itch!  Too much information...  Kasim also told us he and Patti are both opening for Meat Loaf on the summer tour - he's playing 3 or 4 songs solo and Patti's playing 3 with the band behind her.  We're going to hear new songs from QPQ too - "Sacrifice" and "Goodbye"!!</div> <div> What did I change on the page today - well, I finally updated the info about the <A HREF="id52.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Kasim performs at BORDERS!!!!"><U>Borders</U></A> gigs being cancelled due to QPQ's delayed release.  There are licensing issues which need to be resolved, so now we're looking at late August for the debut of the long-awaited CD.  And I finally added the set list from Chicago!!</div> <bR> <div> <B>May 30</b></div> <div> 04:50 There's a new appearance at Borders - Stony Brook!  Click here to view the updated Kasim at BORDERS page!</div> <bR> <div> <B>May 29</b></div> <div> 06:45  The Kasim at BORDERS page has been updated with the news of Kasim's solo shows during the upcoming Meat Loaf tour...  including July 8, when Kasim will appear at "MY" BORDERS!!</div> <bR> <div> <B>May 27</b></div> <div> 07:15  Well, it's a holiday weekend so why not be up early?
