hi there I just listened to your band and I love your music, I work for an int'l work exchange program organization, and also work for the entertainment business, I am interestd in representing your band here and possibly getting some contracts to perform here in the DR , tourist resorts, so please e-mail me, I served in the west mission. cool JOHn
: I got back from my second post mish trip to the DR and I was amazed at what terrible damage the hurricane did when it went through. The drive from the airport to the city looked dead with palm trees down and what not. This was in Nov 98. However, the temple looks incredible! All is well with the construction from what I hear. The outside is almost finished.
: Mcdonalds is everywhere (of course after we all get home). It was cool to see the island again. The people are working hard to clean it up.
: If anybody wants recent info about the DR, you can email me at artdogiedogg@juno.com. Oh and if you want to check out my band you can visit our website at www.thebackofthebus.com.
: peace
