John,
I met Mark through a fellow musician.Made a purchase from M&M and then
met him in person.He even came to a Tull tribute gig of mine.We talked
many times at Nearfest and he even was a distributor of a cd that I
participated on of various artists.He invited me to try out for the keys
replacement in Eccentric Orbit but my chops were not up to par.
A really nice man.

> Mark was a great guy.. We used to have 2 hour long phone calls that usually got political. (we were on the same side that way). I need to call his wife and see how they are...Thanks for the compliments. I have Sonar producer 8.5 and spend most of my time learning and relearning how to use it. So the creativity aint really flowing yet...
