Wouldn't want to. But having a beer backstage sure sounds nice.

For Jaya the Cat, I have to do some research as that`s a new name for me.
They're semi-well known. They play on pretty big festivals here, but there's a very big chance they're not all that well-known in the US (where they come from). In the nearby town of sittard, ska/reggae/skapunk/dub bands get quite some attention because of a little Mexican pub called Ernesto's. It only fits like two-hundred people, but big ones like the Skatalites and the Slackers actually play there. Once they are known there, they are known throughout the country in no-time. Don't know why, but this happens everytime.
And they keep going back there.

I`m glad you like Gris-Gris; even including Dr. John`s other albums,
I have to admit I don't know his other albums. I bought Gris-Gris a couple of monts ago and thought it was brilliant.

Come to think of it, I'm going to take it out of my record cabinet right now .
