You know, when The Gourds played at The Rodeo Bar here in
NYC not too long ago I couldn't find any "Matt Cook" either.
Strangely enough, though, singer-keyboardist David Paich
from Toto -- LA-studio faves in the 80's and Randy Newman's
favourite band -- was there videotaping the group. He looked
very good for his age. More like 20 than 50. I was hoping
he'd jump onstage to lead the band in a Gourdsified version
of "Way down in Aaaaafrica", but he confined himself to
filming the band and drinking Bud.
