Members of the band - past & present



Saturday night marked the end of a wonderful ride for Angie Rikard and the Full Grown band as they performed for the final time Saturday night at the Evening Muse. It was a very special night as current and past members of the band joined in the performance for their friends, family, and fans.

It was a wonderful night of celebration among a special group of fine musicians - one I am very happy to have witnessed as well as photographed.
The link to the images of the evening is located at the bottom of my Musicians Page.
Cheers,

The Guy Forsyth Band


Guy Forsyth Band

I had the pleasure of seeing a very good band from Austin Texas for the first time last night at The Evening Muse. This three piece band delivered an energetic performance filled with ballads, rock, blues, a minor country twist and a little humor. Guy Forsyth plays a smooth guitar, a bluesy harp and a pretty mean saw - yes I said saw, as in hand saw that cuts wood!!

Guy is joined on the drums by Rob Hooper who provides excellent rythym and a touch of harmonious vocal soul to Guys powerful voice.

It was a pleasure being entertained by this group of guys from Texas - a pleasant surprise at the Evening Muse on this cold Saturday night.

Cheers,

Monty
