I only spent a few weeks on tour with Tim Barry, it was in 2001 with his band AVAIL here in Europe.

He probably doesn't realize that I'd spent hours and hours listening to AVAIL records before that, and never even dreaming of meeting the guy, let alone becoming friends. We hadn't been in touch much since then until he sent me this 8 song demo he refcorded and I was blown away. Raw, honest, simple and absolutely unpretentious. 

I couldn't listen to anything else for days.
