Hmm, I gotta get my music awareness up to speed. BTW hub just returned from your area with glowing reports about how the place had been renovated. Great job!

Back then though it was awesome. :) Okay...Nobody's Diary, the guy's hair and glasses in that one made me choke a bit on a sip of water. Reminds me of big bird, maybe after he stole an oversize pair of glasses from John Lennon. I know, weird association but I can't help it. Hysterical! I really like the band though.
