Markus, I don't know how it was done, but the photo you took is with elder Jim, while my Jim was on the stage. That's all I can say about that. The Jim shown on the curtain call and the Jim shown with you are two different people. Ho hum? I really hoped you had that difference. But, elder Jim has placed much of himself into the works in the sense that he guided the composer's direction in themes. You can definitely thank him for Bat Our Of Hell, as my Jim may have written it, but elder Jim did bring its concept to the fore. Like he says, he has some obsessions, and it is true that obsessions make a good backdrop for a dramatic art.
