A wedding song for George's daughter, Terran
good without one politica
Artist picture
liberal ranting and raving, but sensitive explorations of the current American malaise
Good Without One was a drummerless and mercifully leaderless rock trio performing off the track and often humorous, often political originals and originally arranged covers. The players are George Potor, guitar and vocals, Joe DeCristopher, guitar and vocals, and Rick Totten, bass and vocals. These folks have played together in different contexts for decades, but only as this particular trio from 2003 - 2008. While the level of musicianship is high, their disdain for the trappings of rock stardom is legendary. Two of the members even remained seated throughout performances, despite no obvious physical impairments. Their drummerless approach was a novel but occasionally successful scam to get electric instruments into acoustic venues.

Story behind the song
George's daughter, Terran, asked him to write this song for their Father/Daughter dance at her wedding reception. At the reception, there was not a dry eye in the house. Thanks to Eric "One-Take" Lassahn who added drums to GWO's up-until-now drummerless line-up.
Lyrics
April night in Baltimore, I'm so glad this day is yours. Little girl, look at you all grown; You and 'Drew will make a home of your own. Used to worry, you know I worry, But I've always been proud. You keep your feet on the ground And your head in the clouds. Moonlit skies may mark your way; Ties that bind remain the same. Shooting stars, ten thousand diamond rings; Make a wish, see what the morning brings. The sun'll sparkle all around you Wherever you are; Always be my lovely daughter Under endless stars. April night in Baltimore, I'm so glad this day is yours.
