i stepped out with the bleach look sometime in the year before the accident that took us off the road for 9 months. so this must be late '98, early '99? thanks to leila for this shot. i particularly like my joe cocker interpretation.
this was at the vegas renaissance celtic festival. it was so hot the war paint was running into my eyes. i could hardly see. my old bagpipes too, before they fell apart. i'd like to get back to this festival. anyone? also from leila. what year here leels?
i have had it pointed out
that most archive band photos are most likely not digital,
requiring tiresome format changes, scanning or some such wizardry.
they may also be hidden away somewhere in boxes, in closets, in storage.
not to worry.
we shall make this search for classic BROTHER 'looks' an ongoing enterprise.
when you stumble upon the one that gets you smiling tho,
do send that puppy our way ... info@brothermusic.com
here in the mountains. man, woman, child.
i am very grateful to be around in these early days.
he's still so tiny but growing and changing every day.
it is a privilege to be an eye witness to the evolution of a whole new human.
inspiration for another song today.
'sentimental fool'. a hint of zeppelin in this one.
which of the new ones to do with drew at the colonial games next week?
a warm up for our return to costa mesa the following weekend with dalbo ...
costa mesa was the first celtic festival we played.
and we ended up having a dream run there from 1994 to 1998.
the only non traditional entertainment. we had quite the monopoly.
costa mesa witnessed our early evolution as a band.
they were incredible days. incredible crowds.
and we? we were pretty clueless. well, i know i was.
there's gotta be some classic archival photos
floating around from those days, n'est pas?
onstage or behind the scenes.
ladies and gentlemen you have 2 weeks to find your favourites.
spring is truly here.
new colour - gold, purple, red, white, and a very virgin green -
has pushed thru everywhere.
kind of like the insistent thrusting limbs of a new little human i know.
what a time to be in the moment.
