It won't be in print until Sunday, but there's an article about me and our forum in the Santa Rosa newspaper, and it's online now:

Great article, and a fine photo. Hopefully some more folks who didn't know about the forum will join in and enjoy the bounty.
I can't even count the positive things that have happened for me as a result of the forum, and as always, many thanks, b0b.

Great article, and picture as well. You should think about using it as your (new) avatar. Thanks for all you've done in bringing all of us together here on the Forum.
I was not aware that in the past you had played the dives of Mission Street in S.F. Ever play the Town Pump, corner of Mission and 18th? I did, and lived to tell about it! Shocked Laughing

Yes, I played at the infamous Town Pump in 1975, with a band called The Plungers.
