Hey Les. I'll take 'pretty interesting' as a compliment! Sorry for the slow response, haven't checked out this site in ages!
I can't remember where the video came from...it was an old school project from many years ago.
I went to Dallas/Fort Worth last year with my american buddy who studies medicine, it was very very hot!! Enjoyed Fort Worth though, some really interesting bars.
Cheers

Thanks for your reply, I have been busy writing songs but now need to record & upload them to the Composers Forum, I only play guitar but want to add other instruments & find the time to get to a recording studio.
