The Bands i was in self Destructed after eight Rehearsals and two gigs then me and the Guitarist from that band formed Crack Owl and I playd Bongos and he played guitar. We played Coffie houses. Then We changed the name to Genocide and Demon Dance Club but then reverted back to Crack Owl. We also played CBGB's once too as a four piece. Thats intresting about the jazz Music. I got into Frank Zappa a couple of years ago and Al Jolson and Eddie Cantor. Also Lonnie Doonegan (I spelled his last name Wrong)

Need to see the maestro in full tilt to appreciate your music at its best. You were AWESOME! All our love.

Not until Wayne gives me the audio... :( You have to keep at him because I am not sure he really wanted to give ME it. The audio on the tape is "shite" due to overload from the speakers. Sorry- I need the mix from the desk to synchronise your footage to. WILL be ACE, because you rocked the HOUSE!

Hey there, great vids posted. And thanks for posting the lessons. Very cool. Hey, saw you had that Clapton video posted. We've been listening a lot to the Clapton/Winwood live album that came out recently. Have you heard it? Well, great to connect with you. Keep up the excellent lessons.
