Mark, liked your post about 'why.' Heck no, we didn't play no "Rank Strangers" to no dyed-in-the-wool converts! We was true preachin' men! Why, them kids wanted to hear their Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Ugly Kid Joe, and M.C. Hammer! And that was the good stuff! Cain't even go into the little sandal-wearin' nouveau hippies who wanted to hear Buffet, Eagles, and The Dead! But we didn't budge! No sir! They hated our guts lots o'times. We played 'em the Dave Alvin, The Rank Strangers, the Los Lobos, and by the time we got done, well, by the time we got done, they still wanted to hear their same crap.

And speakin' of that Mexican carnival, they still owe me back pay. That stunt I did with Little Hector-No-Shoes was some of the finest bunch'of Gemnastics those folks'll ever see. Philistines!
Jeff.
