I've had them. The Pilot House in Kingston makes (made?) them, and they're great. Aloha, Brad

Relix has a good article (with lots of historic detail) about the Royal Potato family of bands, including Marco Benevento, The Slip, SMMD, the Duo, etc. http://www.relix.com/features/2011/01/11/root-down-the-royal-potato-family Aloha, Brad

I just use a text file, but I maintain it as I go. When I hear about an upcoming show I plan to attend, I enter it in the file. (I have about 10 or 15 shows entered for February, 2011 so far, for example.) It's not much more work than writing it down in a day-timer, and at the end of the year (or whenever), I end up with a show-by-show log of shows I attended. Aloha, Brad

No, just a text file. Aloha, Brad

Delicate Steve is the opening act. Aloha, Brad
