Was, as a young person. Family group. So long ago it's scary. Two sisters and a brother and I. All over the place, but once we grew up we were too ugly to take it further. Well, my brother and I were/are the ugly ones We opened a lot of shows for a lot of folks back in days of old. Heck, more than half of them aren't even alive any more.
My Fav Gordon Lightfoot song. This one always hit home http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9eY5KVSZ30&feature=related I liked Doug and the Slugs and was always surprised that they did not get a bigger audience.
