[Pete] Yes we do.

[remitman] have you ever concidered getting a booking at the bottom line in NYC

[remitman] it would be perfect

[Pete] Sometimes I look over on stage and say "He is burning tonight" and I realize that is my brother.

[Pete] We are trying in NYC

[remitman] I hope so....I'll be there

[_Mermaid_] Birthday HUGS for Bob from Merm
