Love the background in your picture Daved!
It looks like one of the hotels in Las Vegas!
P.S. Bella Italia!
It's closer to you than that, Marin (Which, as indicated by your P.S., I think you already know ).... the Grand Canal, Venice, Italy.... a beautiful city that I always enjoy visiting. _________________ B C-ing U!

Let me give you an example of his insight:
There was one tune (I don't remember which one it was) that was completed except for the lead vocals. Robben kept going into the booth and giving the song his best shots, all of which were very good, but John & Nico kept agreeing with Robben that it could be great! However, no one could figure out quite what it was that held up putting the performance over-the-top.
Everyone was about to settle & move on when Nico suddenly said, "Robben, do me a favor. Let's try it one last time but, this time pick up your guitar, don't plug it in, but play along as you sing... the way your used to doing it."
It made ALL the difference in the world. By the end of the first verse we all knew we had our take!
This is the kind of story I love to hear and is one of many great things about having you as part of our community Daved.
