Macalester College had a student-run coffee house, No Exit, which lived behind the college grill in the Student Union's basement in the late '60s. It was a cozy, black-painted place with good entertainment, good sound, and decent food. Leo, who struck me as a young white man impersonating an old drunken blues singer, played there regularly when I was a freshman and a sophomore. (The music redeemed the act.)

Question: Is "good enough" really good enough? The answer probably depends on what you were hoping for.

Joan and I have rather different musical tastes. Joan mainly listens to classic rock radio; while I'm fairly eclectic, my preferences for bluegrass and baroque music are choices Joan barely tolerates. At this edge--Bob Seger, Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, John Mellencamp--our tastes touch and we're both comfortable. I mention this because Joan was in the audience at one of the Cobo Hall concerts taped to make the Seger album. Wish I'd been there.

My first encounter with a stereo headset was in high school; my friend (and choir seatmate) Vik Berstis insisted that there was something magical about the device, and forced me to listen to--well, I really don't remember what. But I did agree about the magic.
