OK, what man was in Return to Paradise? Why don't I remember this?
Ah... tonight's thinking all laid out for me. I'm mona in "My Backyard," and I'm sure I'll be thinking of these all morning. Oh and GUY CLARK!! Yes, everybody should hear Guy.
I checked the link you left on my blog -- he's a cutie! Almost as hot as my hotie.
Salamander Croosing - Absolutely, and its new incarnation as Rani Arbo and Daisy Mayhem. The bass player played bagpipes at my cousin's wedding in 1990!
