Nice comment from Joel Cage.

Hello Mike & Kim!Thanks for writing - I am particularly excited as THE BAND is quantifiably my most fertile influence - yea twas a time when I considered myself Robbie incarnate.That was many years ago, but the neat thing about influences is how they steep within, even long after you've cease drawing upon them.Thank you for the blog entry! It's wonderful to be referenced ... and I love the color scheme on the site.I shall look forward to this evening all the more ..RegardsJOEL CAGE www.joelcage.com

Thanks, Joel! - Mike & Kim
