Scott McCaughey worked at Cellophane Square in Seattle. Robert Fripp writes
that he met Howie Epstine at a Tower Records. Roy Loney still puts in a few
hours at Jack's in SF. Jim Dickson from the Barracudas worked at Vinyl Solution
in Portabello Rd. Actually just around the corner from Minus Zero/Stand Out.
The chap who used to lead the Hummingbirds owns a shop in Sydney, Steve Lorkin
(aka Sheik The Shayke) works at Red Eye also in Sydney. I think more than a few
"names" might have worked at AuGoGo in Melbourne. I met Manfred from the
Woggles at the Wuxtry in Atlanta.... your turns
