    Very very very cool Jason.

    Definitely one of the few rockers out there that it's obvious they're way cool and down to earth. Not to mention in to cars.

    Very cool, that's another person I'd like to talk to, I just found out he used to live in Tanglewood next door to my cousin & her family, a real nice guy. I met Frank at an auto auction about 20 years ago but just thought he was just another car guy, not the famous drummer. I spoke with him & one of his friends out Ferraris, hot rods, etc.. for about twenty minutes. I wasn't told who he was until I walked over to my friends that were freaking out. Good times.

    They used to play at some of the nightclubs a friend's father used to own part of (the Cellar, IIRC), back in the 60's or early 70's. Fred still has B&W pics of sitting in with them on drums when he was about 8-10, and when they are in town, one or two of them will sometimes stop by to see him. We went to see them waaaaaay back when Billy Bob's was semi-new, and they gave us VIP passes to hang out after the show. All I can say is "ABSO@#$%INGLUTELY NEAT!! ! !!!!". Cool guys.
    Pretty sure that William probably knows Fred (W.), too.

    I hear that far too often. I still vote for Houston's (on kirby) burger... Hell, I'd take a Becks over the Totem. Sadly I've had these discussions a few times :p
