			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gil Ray (from the 80s band <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_Theory_(band)">Game Theory</a>) wrote a <a href="http://pobuck.blogspot.com/2009/03/kids-are-alright.html">review</a> of our show last month at The Starry Plough in Berkeley.  It&#8217;s the first such review that I&#8217;m aware of, so thanks for getting things started, Gil!</p>
<p><img src="http://bandnotb.net/images/20090226_DR+DD.jpg" alt="David and Dusty on stage with B and Not B at the Starry Plough, 2009-02-26" class="imageright photo" />Here are some excerpts:</p>
<blockquote><p><span class="bq_open">&#8220;</span>First up were B and Not B. They have a very dynamic front man with interesting songs. Hard to describe&#8230;some of the melodies were adventurous (not too unlike something <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Miller_(Californian_Musician)">Scott Miller</a> could conceive), along with interesting arrangements. At least one song reminded me of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparks_(band)">Sparks</a>. Extra points for the drummer using the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traditional_grip">traditional drumstick grip</a>, and it&#8217;s always cool to have a designated backup singer that stands there all alone on the front of the stage without an instrument to hide behind.</p>
<p>[...]</p>
<p>I gotta mention that there were 2 common attributes that all 3 bands displayed that I love to see and hear. First, they all looked good. I used to not care about what a band looks or dresses like, but now that I&#8217;m not up on the stage, I really appreciate when a band dresses up.</p>
<p>[...]</p>
<p>The other thing that impressed me with all 3 bands were the vocal harmonies. All of these guys could sing and most importantly, sing well together. I don&#8217;t think there&#8217;s any other thing a band can do that will get my attention more than good vocals. It <em>sounds</em> good, and not an easy thing to do.<span class="bq_close">&#8221;</span></p></blockquote>
<p>Thanks for the kind words, Gil.  We hope to see you at another show some day.</p>
