Then my band got to open for them in Louisville in 2004 & we got to bond a bit. I also saw the "Brothers Unconnected" tour where Alan and Rick Bishop toured after Charles Gocher died. Also have had a chance to see Rick Bishop several times, though I missed Rangda when they were through. Great shows all.Bill Zinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10614494130260695458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3727921144124914772.post-71521877689370310792012-02-02T14:30:18.832-08:002012-02-02T14:30:18.832-08:00Bill, might I ask when and where you saw the Sun C...Bill, might I ask when and where you saw the Sun City Girls?atorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18189512360330048595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3727921144124914772.post-56165970417255569822012-02-02T08:25:40.424-08:002012-02-02T08:25:40.424-08:00I'm old.

I think I'll add it to my DVD queue right now (not doing the streaming movie thing yet)<br /><br />On a related note, I still have vivid memories of the first time I put on Minor Threat's "Out of Step" and heard the opening notes to "Betray". I think that was the first punk album I ever listened to.atorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18189512360330048595noreply@blogger.com
