Definitely, clarke, though I sure as heck would not turn down a chance to see them. A highpoint was when Kevn Kinney ended up filling a slot for a booker friend at Trash Bar when K8's last band was playing there. He was so kind and generous and when he realized how I felt, he basically was like, "OK, [Handy], what do you want to hear?" Really wonderful night. And I got to tell him how much his music had and still did mean to me, which is a chance always worth taking.
