A Word From The Loose Marbles

I sent an e-mail to the Loose Marbles, letting them know how much I liked their stuff and that I'd written about them on my blog (see entry below). Here is the response I got from Ben, the trumpet player:

"Just read your 'blog' and really enjoyed it. The only things I would say are that there is no drum kit OR washboard on our cd's. Our washboard player does play kit, but not with us. And, we play on the street becuase we prefer to. We like no myspace, website, fancy packaging-- our priority is bringing music to the streets-- to the babies and old ladies and everyone, and this is what we do. We also play plenty of 'gigs', all of which were gotten by playing on the street... See ya in the park..."

I think maybe I might like them even more, now.

Also, apparently they spend the whole Summer playing in the park, so, make sure you go check them out and buy their stuff and tip them well.
