Heyyy Larue,
You met one of the finest! Now you ought to meet the REST of "Back to
Basics".......omigawddddd! Those people have an absolutely WIERD sense of
humor.......woo HOO! First time I became aware of Jimmy Warren's band, they had
this huge cardboard box, by the side of the road.......with a sign........DO NO
LOOK IN HERE!! Well of course EVERYONE lined up and bent over to look in the
box......where there was a tv set, hooked to a cam-corder, aimed at the BACKSIDE
of the person looking into the box.......yada yada...
Mandatory reso-content, umm, can't actually think of any except when Jim Warren
PLAYS.........I listen!
Twangs,
Richie Chiasson
Salem, N.H.
ps......knowing these guys......even wayyyy back then, I did NOT look in the
box! (Grins)!
