DwDunphy Thanks for the link to the article! This is a great article that helped fill in some missing history for me. Of course, I didn't know a whole lot about Mike anyway, but it's great to find out things I didn't know. __________________ Holy God break me, Holy Lord take me Lay your crushing hand, Your mighty hand, On me gently Your crushing hand, Your mighty hand, On me gently 10-28-2004 18:43 Mountain Fan Ubique Epoque Registration Date: 10-09-2003 Posts: 14,224 Location: NC, Alive and Kicking, BOBD Excellent info. I've never seen that much about Mike in one place before. I always wondered if he was embarassed, didn't want to be a bad influence, or what since I never saw that much about him. I'll take honesty anyday and I appreciate him all the more now, after having read all that. __________________ Got a few miles left ...

Interesting!!! Mike Roe and David Lynch in the same article __________________ http://www.google.com 10-29-2004 12:36 carl Platyhelminth Registration Date: 03-15-2002 Posts: 6,960 1) I don't think the writer gives Mike's parents enough credit (I've gathered from live comments that they've been behind Mike's music from day one); 2) there IS no Somerset, NJ show ;; and 3) from the WTF department: "If there is a low point to this period, it is the band’s 2001 album, A Golden Field of Radioactive Crows, a guitar-driven album full of overwrought, pseudo-hard-rock posturing and musical and lyrical clichés." Otherwise, a really good article. My favorite anecdote: "So, what’s a Pentecostal kid to do when his tastes veer more toward Led Zeppelin than “Just a Closer Walk With Thee”? As a teenager, Roe made his first attempts to reconcile the viewpoints. “In 1969, I was 15 and had a group called 'The Brotherhood,’” Roe explained. “That was a Christian [rock] band, but there wasn’t really anything like that at the time.” The biggest show the band ever played was opening for none other than Swaggart himself, to an enthusiastic audience of 15,000 who cheered the band’s Christian rock music with rapturous applause. Swaggart, not to be upstaged, followed up by giving a sermon on the evils of rock ’n’ roll music." __________________ 10-29-2004 12:48 dorfsmith Grand Encephalon Registration Date: 03-24-2002 Posts: 28,142 Location: Everybody needs a persicom swaggart is on the next earworms CD __________________ http://www.google.com 10-29-2004 12:54 carl Platyhelminth Registration Date: 03-15-2002 Posts: 6,960 He was on the last one too.

That line surprised me a bit too; though I must admit I agree with him. Golden Field and Tom Tom Blues are, in my opinion, low points in the 77s catalog. 10-29-2004 13:13 carl Platyhelminth Registration Date: 03-15-2002 Posts: 6,960 Well, I HALF-agree with you, in that case... __________________ 10-29-2004 13:16 dorfsmith Grand Encephalon Registration Date: 03-24-2002 Posts: 28,142 Location: Everybody needs a persicom Tom Tom is somewhat of a low point.
