ReplyDeleteWhen I saw them in Cambridge MA, they were having a few problems with it, due to a dead internal battery. They had it mostly sorted out by the show two days later in Northampton, but it went into patch-randomizing mode a couple of times...

And I, too, didn't realize it was The Source.
You're welcome James. I'm still flattered that the author of Retro Thing actually reads my blog! : ) I remember reading Retro Thing before I started this blog.
