Like you say, it would be silly not to go. I would definitely go and watch him if he played in my home town. I wouldn't travel far to watch him but I quite like what I have heard from him.

Pottel, David is brilliant in his own way, actually I would say that what Mark is doing now, is what David is doing since 1993 when he released his record "The giver", then "Small mercies" that to me is a jewel, and "Wishbones" was really really great. The rest of records were the same kind of good songwritting.

I know they are very different, but the funny thing to me is that they ended doing the same kind of music and songwritting, with his differences, but the same roots and the same music flavour, but Dave arrived first  ;D

If you can record the show, it will be great, I

Look at that...just found out he'll be playing in NYC on October 7th. The only thing is that it's at a club I swore I would never go back to. Plus they want $25+fees.  :o
