Just another band name that came up sometime somewhere, no doubt in some iffy runnnin' van, chuggin' and a-smokin' down a rutted, one and a half lane highway.

Spent 25-30 years on stage with such acts as the SideWinders, North Coast . . . from Seattle to Denver and loads of places in between. Retired from performing in 2001.

As soon as dial-up is rare instead of the norm, I think the internet will completely revolutionize the way things are done. Sure wish things were where they are now back in the mid-60's when I started out . . . could've made all the difference in the world. It's a real pain in the ass putting demo pax together, mailin' them out and all that. The internet should change all that, and fairly soon.

I'm more interested in joining a publishing group project. There's enough older people still playing, and it's bound to just get more crowded out there. Unless you're doin' your own originals, it gets dated and one easily becomes jaded.

All "old school" pretty much . . . Beatles, The Band, Neil Young, Dylan, Early Steve Earle, Traffic, The Beat Farmers.

The Cellar Door, Washington, D.C.

Well, I've sold off almost everything I had. I'm playing my old Strat, a really nice old Guild acoustic and recording on a little Fostex Mr-8 digital recorder. It works great for what I'm doing. Once I figure out how to "build" drum trax on this Alesis SR-16 drum-u-lator, I should really be able to do some serious recording.

The songs I'm posting have already been passed on by the Nashville cats, so if you hear anything here that you can use for a project, just let me know.
