What a blast!
I can't begin to tell how much fun this has been for me to reunite with this great group of men. We were like brothers 30 years ago and we are again. It has been a pleasure to work with these fine musicians. We are going to rock the hell out of Spring Valley Saturday night!

Rush Excerpt
Ok-So here's an excerpt of our impromptu playing yesterday of Temples of Syrinx by Rush. This was the song I auditioned for Steve with when we first met. I got neutered yesterday before practice so I could sing this.

Stoney Dunlap 1962-2008
Ever since we decided to do this I've been looking for my old friend Stoney (Jack) Dunlap, who came to many of our shows back in the day & was a big fan, cuz I knew he'd love to attend. I've been able to find little hints of his whereabouts but never able to fully track him down.
Today, unfortunately, I did. Rest In Peace my friend & God bless.
