    Thanks for putting your business card on my car window the other week at Oak Ridge Elementary.  I put you in my top friends today.  I hope you are having a great year so far.  John Wright

    We love to hear your group play at the Italian restaurant Cafe Molise. It is great food too. I remember when we were teachers at Mars music back in 2001. Hope to hear you play again soon.

    Hey, dude, just wanted to say Carmen and I had a great time catching Double Helix at Zanzibar.

    Yeah, you guys are ALL top-notch players. Really, really tight stuff . . . and all the songs were cool.

    Always a joy to hear some serious, authentic, no-B.S. all-instrumental jazz fusion in downtown SLC.

    Keep up the great work!
