Yo, Peter,
Where are you writing from?  A 'Birdman' gig would be amazing to
catch.  Does the 'AU' in your address mean Australia?  I guess that'd
be a little far for a gig.  I now seem to recall that Birdman has
some connection to Detroit rock in the MC5 era.  Someone in the band
was in either MC5 or the Stooges.  Any info out there?
