Janice,

I've always enjoyed the SD Street Fair when I've gone. The music just keeps gettin' richer & richer.

It's funny how things come around. Peter, Dave, and brother Phil were among the kids who used to hang around Downey studios where The Rumblers, Chantays, & Pastel Six did our recording.

The studio was in back. In front was a record store. Kids would just hang out, explore old LP gems, and think "us big record guys" were, well, "big record guys."

So, if you see Peter Case, Dave or Phil Alvin, tell 'em Howdy from The Rumbler Sax Guy Rex.

Yrs later, when The Plimsouls & Blasters blossomed, I'd take my boys to their concerts. We'd go back stage and my little boys would look at those "big record guys" just like back in the day.

Peter and, then wife, Victoria Williams played at my brother-in-law's wedding in Seattle. Dave and Phil shine separately these days, but not astranged.

Very good people. I hadn't seen Peter in while till The Plimsouls summer re-union. Good to chat again. Looking soon to get w/ Dave again at The Knitters thing.

Anytime any one or all come to your town - Go!

Thanks for the info about both Peter & Dave, Janice.

So, I switched to Sanka,

Rez
