"Just back in the UK from a great vacation in "the south". The best music of the whole trip (including New Orleans) was Wednesday night at the Tin Roof Cantina. Thanks to all the band for coming to talk to us. To anyone from the UK, or wherever, make a point of being in Atlanta on Wednesday night and get to hear the best music going. Thanks again Steve from Brian and Sheila Hills (John Scriven's friends from England)- We'll be back!"

Stay positive & always smile :) Signed.....a new fan, Lisa"
