Thank you Bill!!! Read it all. Terrific stuff and I'll be sharing it with my friend who is now also a fan. I envy your history of seeing this band. No time like the present I guess!
To bad about the no record contract. Please add that link when you have it!
Wednesday night at one moment Dave suddenly needed a quick break (I swear total fatigue/thirst). To kill time while Dave took a few minutes Christine Smith did this witty yet refined "Noel Coward" very British "rap" song. Maybe some Brit knows of it?
So, anyway yeah, this show had a bit of everything!
Any thoughts on your fav version of Marah live. I assume it includes his brother in the lineup?
