A touch off topic – I bought my tickets this morning for the Acoustic Strawbs show at McCabe’s in Santa Monica on Oct 29…….very excited! One of my “I’ll never get to see them in my lifetime” bands is going to be here!! I’m just that age where I got interested in the Moodies, Strawbs, BJH, Starcastle, Gurvitz, etc. when the band had slowed down, lost key members, couldn’t afford to come to the US or fully changed direction….NOW, that is going to change, for crying out loud, and I had to tell somebody about it – take advantage of this kind of a thing – it doesn’t always happen in such wonderful ways!  Vance

They're also going to be here in San Diego on 11/06 -- got my tickets today.  Last time I saw them was in 1975, with Hawken and Coombes, opening for Kraftwerk!
