Great character and finally he looks like a shaved Santa Claus too ...

We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

A dandy Santa - love the bow tie/scarf/ascot.

 I also love how Mr Hill looks like Neil Young now:

 I just treasure the fact that I got to see them at all, that they came to and played almost in my backyard is amazing........
They were  F#%&ing LOUD and so much fun. I'll love them forever!

Got to see them a few times, but on my doorstep, so to speak...

Not heard anything about Jim Lea here...?
