I was so media clueless at that point in time, I had no idea he played ISM on American Bandstand! Thank heavens for the Internet -- otherwise I'd probably still be wandering in a daze somewhere. Bill Watrous played on Aliens, I believe. Not sure who played the trombone for Flat Earth, though. I'll have to check my copy when I get home from the coffee shop. I bet Jon Chiddick knows that off the top of his head -- are ya here, Mr. Finland? (Jon probably has the Flat Earth line-up tattooed on his body somewhere, along with all the rest of the Dolby arcana he knows! ;) ) Cheers, Melissa ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 09 Sep 2007 16:51:26 -0400 From: wcs@williamsteffey.com Subject: Alloy: movie about TED Check it: "The Future We Will Create: Inside the World of TED" is available for online viewing via Netflix. The movie was incredibly inspirational... I can't imagine what it would be like to attend the actual conference!
