	Some people, even those of us who are single, like to go out alone
	frome time to time, to listen to live music.
	I have some friends who play music of the 30's and 40's in some of
	the more stylish clubs in the Portland area. When I go to listen to
	them I have found that I PREFER to go out alone. If I go with some-
	one else, we usually end up talking and I don't get to hear the 
	music. If I want to talk with friends, I stay home and talk. When I
	go to listen to Becky sing, I like to hear her sing.
	On occation, someone will come ask if they can join me, (if I have
	been lucky enough to latch on to a table) and I tell them "It's
	fine with me, as long as you don't talk". I'm not being rude, mind 
	you, I smile and nod. I just go on listening to the music and if
	they sit down and listen too that's fine. If they are quiet, I might
	even talk to them when the band takes their brake, but usually I talk
	to the members of the band.
