Computer Crash

My computer is kaput, and in the shop. Updates will be sparse, as all my notes and pics are hopefully being recovered. More later.

Home, home again

I've returned from the blizzard of 2003 safely. Excellent weekend, 5 shows by Brother, lots of friends, what could be better!

T and Dez are both great, sweet, wonderful and talented guys, very nice additions to Brother. Hamish, Angus and Rick were wonderful as always, and all five of the shows rocked, in their own special ways. I'll be posting set lists and a few pictures later tonight, and reviews and final pics will come in the next few days. Keep looking!

Still here...

So... it's still snowing. We're still here. I'm hoping to post set lists or pictures later today, if possible.

The NBC10 show the guys were supposed to be on is canceled (which is a good thing, because it's a state of emergency here), for more live snow coverage.

We're hanging out, running into random Brother fans, and making silly jokes all night long. And in the words of Brother: It's all good, it's alright, it's ok.

Snow

Hey Y'all.

Due to 12 plus inches of snow, I'm stuck in King of Prussia for another night. Reviews will come, but they will come later.

Brother did not disappoint this weekend.
