Ha ha...who knows what the future may bring.  There are no plans for Ron 
and myself at the moment.
He has continued MOAB, but apart from Ron being in it, there the 
connection ends from the original band.
We found a great session drummer a day before we recorded Insect 
Brain...John Morgan from Senser.
His drumming really helped to bring the music together with just a two 
hour rehearsal before we went into the studio.

There arn't any other tracks apart from those on Insect Brain. Maybe 
some iffy live recordings from the couple of gigs we played but I don't 
have them.

We were offered a deal from Black Widow Recs but it was scuppered by the 
management, and the band fell apart.

I really liked playing with Ron...we have a musical afinity.

Do you like my manic use of hyperbole...lol
