OLD AUSTIN STORIES

I played with Tim in a short-lived original pop-rock band (Pretty How Town) in Austin, and also Rob played a couple of years with the pop-dance cover band (Be Wires) I myself was in for several years. These old pictures are in the photo-album "Singing in Life" and "Learning to Create Music" from the webpage http://community.webshots.com/user/aarkli . Both guys were, and still are I am sure, awesome musicians, and people to be around. Tim actually gave me a short guitar lesson once, gave me a few pointers and things to study if I was that determined to know more. Rob, one of the most tasteful, steady, and reliable drummers I had played (sang) with at that time. He also shared an apartment with me for a couple of years (he patiently and reliably - like the professional "clock" is, tolerated my odd ways). Won't ever forget Tim and Rob's commradery and partnerships. I am A.K. in the photos. I have been in N.Y.C. since "retiring" at the end of 1995. Went there with my girlfriend at the time, but we split after a year. Got to see Tim's wife once when she was attending a conference in NYC, but both of us were too busy to share more than a brief "hi how are you doin and hellos". Great people, great town of Austin we all performed together in at that time. Times and people I'll fondly remember the rest of my days! If anyone is in touch with either of them, tell them Hello from Aaron in NYC, and also tell them another musician they knew and played with (Byrd) is here now as well with his really nice and cool lady.
