Watch For More Performance Dates Coming Soon!

Tour with David, Country Joe, Bruce Barthol and Chicken Hirsh.
"Just a note of thanks to you and the band for the quality of the show at the Acorn in Penzance. It's always possible to be disappointed when heroes of an earlier era return to perform but the sound and musicianship of the band brought all of the memories up to date in a wonderful evening. I do have to say that if the show had been recorded I'd buy it immediately."
