Mike O'Brien

Since Mike was singing harmony with me on "you can have her", I will post him here so you can see how good he sings all by himself.

Mike is one of the bosses, so you'll notice how much nicer his set looks than mine

Hi Chris

Post by Kenny Yates »

How you doing Chris, It been a while. I was sent all these tapes last year and I've been going through them, it does bring back some old times. The guys in the band were usually taping another show while these were on tv so we never saw much of them. Sacramento didn't have cable back in those days and vcrs cost a fortune so we were just out of luck. Anyway this is fun and lots of the people are contacting me that I haven't heard from in a long time.

Don't know if you heard but Rick Wild had a Stroke and is paralyzed on his right side and is confined pretty much to a wheel chair..I hear Joe is pretty sickly also. Anyway nice to hear from you..let me know what you are up to these days...keep in touch
