I've been away for a week or so.  4 of those days were at Bluesfest.  What a great lineup it was!  With 5 stages, often we struggled to decide which act to see in a timeslot.
Cheers

Our Guitarist Leo says he had similar problems. I'm very envious  :-\

I've been working hard in the Dog food factory as one of my guys has been off sick for 2 weeks now  :-[  Business is good at least  :)

I like 'em and my 22-year old daughter likes 'em. Saw them in Denver year before last and they sounded great.
