Thanks for posting pics, Joey .... and a bigger thanks for all your behind the scenes efforts in making SCARF the success that it was. It took a lot of work and worrying about this and that and you deserve a lot of credit !! And Paul too, who was right there, pitching in, all the way ! You guys were great !!
And accolades to Diane and Gary too !!

And now we can all relax and have some fun at tomorrow night's Trotty-Con (mini-confluence Jam session) in honor of our Melbourne visitor, (Trotty) whose energy and fun-loving personality contributed so much to the enjoyment of SCARF.

Regards

The Rickenbrothers were fantastic. Way to go guys you sounded great. What a cool sound from Big Red and the EBow. You guys were solid.

Jerry I love your material, your arrangements and especially your vocals and guitar playing. The Shamus Twins rock. Your ryhthm section is rock solid and tight. Oh btw thanks for playing Turning Loose............one of my favourite songs of yours as you know.

I was out of town over the weekend so I have not had a chance to listen to Smiling Face Down or Hautewerk yet..............I'll be back to comment after I have had that opportunity.

In case you are wondering I am just listening to the whole show with my headphones on. Thanks for a great show so far.

Back again..............Smiling Face Down is RED HOT. You guys are every bit as good as your recordings live. I am a confirmed fan of the band Paul. Fantastic material and presented with loads of energy and poise. You guys rock.

Hautewerk was fantastic Kenny and John. Amazing keyboard work Kenny. John your new bass sounds terrific. I would definitely go see you guys live if I ever got the chance. Great show, great music and great musicians too. Thanks guys for putting such a good show on for all of us who could not be there in person.

Those are great pictures Joey. I have just been watching some of the Rickenbrothers video on YouTube too and you were really, really great.

I think you should keep this band going. I'm a fan!
