Yesterday, all of the friends, fans, and people that just happened to drop into John & Peters didn't hesitate to tell me how great we sounded. "Awesome" was the most over used word. Of course, my real gift - if I have one - is that I choose to take the stage with great players like you. It was fun. It was fantastic. Looking forward to the next time! Thanks.
Darren, Chris and I are looking forward to following the funk with you driving the groove Friday night at The Nail. We'll be going out on the highwire without a net, for sure - should be a night full of great energy, thrills. I've got goosebumps already!
