For whatever it's worth, have seen a lot recently...Louisville's the frontrunner for Mikel Brown? Real? Whatever comes out with that...Kelsey's better than Kenny Payne though...I know that...

Brandon Lee's a good player from what I've seen. Lengthy...probably around that 6"4 - 6"5 range. Great bucket getter. Was one of the leaders in EYBL scoring too at one point. Def. might have the potential to crack our rotation as a solid piece in a few years (if we land him - as expected).

With apologies to Golden Earring

The podcast's playing some forgotten song
Brandon Lee's coming on strong
The recruit has got me hypnotized
And I'm speeding into a new sunrise

… So, so you think you can tell heaven from hell?
Blue skies from pain?
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
… Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
Did you exchange a walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?
… How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground, what have we found?
The same old fears, wish you were here

What is the meaning behind Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here"?


Waters, who mainly wrote the lyrics complementing Gilmour's initial riff idea and subsequent joint composition, describes the lyrics as being directed at himself, as his lyrics often are. Being present in one's own life and freeing one's self in order to truly experience life is a main topic in this song.

I read that It was written for former member (sp?) Sid Barrett

I am reading “Twilight of the Gods”. The author says there was a “Syd” trilogy of albums after he got kicked out of the band - Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here and The Wall. He showed up during the Wish You Were Here recording sessions and he looked so messed up that his former bandmates didn’t recognize him.

“There’s someone in my head but it’s not me.”


Now back to regularly scheduled recruiting news…
