I second all you say. But first of all it`s the music of vince that gets to
me. As you know I\Ve been around here fore more than ten years now. A lot of
the music described as OKOM bores me and some I love. I am a music lover.
Vince is beyond all genres. Vince is an artist who just makes those words
and music. Something really special. Listen.

Emne: [AboutTownes] Re: Vince Bell
Vince is an amazing guy. And an incredibly nice feller too! When I
pulled up to their house in Nashville back in 99, we had never met at
all. V was out in the garage looking for a washer and welcomed us
like old friends. Ditto for his wife Sarah. Somehow I managed to play
him my take on Frankenstein, and he was very gracious in asking for a
recording of my version to play for the author. If you get to the
website, also check out Vince's journals. I love 'em. I think some
equal his songwriting for creativity.
The last time I saw Vince he was playing in Austin at a tiny little
theatre with about 15-20 folks in attendance. No mic, no cords. Just
him and his two Pawless guitars.......sharing the stage with some old
friends from Denim. Youda thunk he was playing for a packed house at
the ACL soundstage.
I love seeing him at the OQ in Galveston. He and Wrecks are old
buddies and play great off one another.
Haven't read 68 28 yet but One Mans Music is wonderful. 68 28 will be
ordered soon.
Mi Dos Centavos,
