Thanks for the heads up. Always a big Nerps fan, not many of them left but Buddy is still going strong with them.

A buddy of mine saw them in Colorado last year in front of 40 people and they still played for 3 and a half hours.

I saw them for the first time a year ago and they were amazing.

My older brother saw them open for the DEAD and MARSHALL TUCKER at the famous Englishtown Raceway Park show in the late seventies. I was relegated to listen on the radio since I was too young. My bro still has the live cassettes of the show.

BTW, I'll be at Englishtown on Sunday for the Old Time Drags and Funny Car ReUnion, Ain't The seventies Great!

RIP Marmaduke!!!
