DIA	Jun 27 2009 10:43 PM When the doorman proclaimed a $10 dollar fee upon entrance, I nearly walked away. My arrival was random and without substantial reason, my ears virgin to your sound. I quickly understood why I was there when you began to play. Thank you, thank you, thank you... Thank you all so much! That was surely one of the finest performances I have ever witnessed. Much respect and admiration!
