WOW! Marty you actually picked up on the theme! We need to start
hanging out with older people, no offense. Like I said "B&J" is
probably our worest song, but it cracks us up everytime.
B&J is my tribute to the Crossfires Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde.
Thanks for the comments on our drummer, he's our 2nd drummer and is
100 times better than our last, if more people in the surf circles
heard this guy he would be considered one of the tops.
Thanks,
Bill

I'm distracted by the recurring phrase from the Mayberry RFD theme.
