Topic: BDS/Davey Knowles surprise call

Here's an article on the band that brought a smile to my face...what a kick that must have been.
Not at all a side note, but our own JB gets a shout out here.

That's a really nice story Bill.  Thanks for sharing.  Whatever makes Davy happy, makes me happy!

I know that Joe could play one of those kid's guitars with the plastic strings and make it sound good-

Re: BDS/Davey Knowles surprise call

When I was talking to Davy - I mentioned that I thought of JB when I heard him solo with the "violin sound" rolling on the vol. control.  He was very quick to politely point out it was a Rory Gallagher trick...

cool news.

OOOOOOOOOH.  That's what that is!  I thought it was just an abstract avatar.  Silly me.
