JET was a long time ago, 25 years old, and feeling so confident and cocky. I did a lot more big shows with 'The Medflys'; and my closest and best friends are in the Bagtones/BWOP (including the HUGE entourage...lol) ...but...JET WAS MY DREAM COME TRUE..an album!!!! This album was produced by Michael Nesmith in 1979. |
Chuck Watson, Ralph Hassman (RIP 6/23/06), David Lewis, Alex Stewart, Dale Kurokawa |
The Medlys was the most popular band I was in. We opened for 'the Tubes' for a year on the west coast. When we went out with them it was 4 nights a week in front of 5,000 seats houses. We also opened for the Pointer Sisters, Joan Jett, and I can't remember who-all. We had one hit...played across the planet for one week... when Clint Eastwood was elected Mayor of Carmel-By-The-Sea. It was called 'Don't Mess With the Mayor'. Check out the video below. |

Heres a couple videos: In the Medflys one I play mandolin and am the guy in the big white duster coat. In the Bombay (a band I wasn't really in) video I'm the sax player. |
Carl Christ, Dale Kurokawa, Tracy Rose, Steve Irwin, Robbie Evans, and me with the sax. |
