Cool Dave: I did not know you played with them, they are indeed an 
interesting group, I discovered them at a street festival in Pleasanton, California 
about a year ago, and my six year old grandson loved them, we sat through two sets 
and he went up to  them and told them he was going to play in his grampa's 
band someday and he thought they were too cool/
