So here is a funny and interesting story. When I was 15 I played in a band. Truthfully, for a bunch of 15 year olds we were very good. Vocally I was very strong for my age, but the drummer was also amazing. Frankly, so was the drummer and bass player. The drummer, however, matured first. He moved to Toronto after living with my family for a school year and had amazing success, young, as a drummer. He, I think, is probably some kind of a genious, but drumming is not what he decided he would set his mind on.
I connected with him when I moved to Toronto and found out he was still drumming, but more involved with the technology industry.
The amazing people that designed my new CD cover at Riordon Design have lost a couple of people recetly to a gaming/technology company. Riordon are amazing, and do amazing work, so when I found out they lost these people I assumed the company was one of the bigs. You know where this is going don't you.
So I was working on a booking with someone who used to play with my friend and found out that he no longer plays, but has a gaming company, and has lured the folk that I know from my friends company to his. Small world. More power to you Kevin. All the best. (Silver Birch)

Small world is right my brotha! Just on a whim I decided to Google you tonight, and here you are. Really cool to see that you are still going strong on the music thing, and you better believe I'm going to check back here regularly for all the latest and greatest Cliff notes. I'll pick up your recorded stuff too, even though you didn't ask me to play... ;-)
Let's get Laube and the boys back together and jam in the portable again at CLA - once more for old time's sake.
Really great to 'see' you man, I wish you all the best and let's see if we can connect some day soon.

Hey Cliff! I'm happy that you have recovered from our little photo shoot. I didn't stick around much longer after that hike in the woods so I still haven't seen how the CD turned out. I trust Shirley did a great job! She does really beautiful work.
My CD design days are behind me now. I'm happy to leave it to those that are much better at it then me. My time is devoted to robots and spaceships these days. You can check out my stuff at www.thenextside.com
The guys at SilverBirch have been good to me. Lots of interesting projects these days.
Hope your doing well.
Cheers,
Tim
