Larry’s Find
, a photo by Rich in Orderly Manor on Flickr. Larry is our bus driver. He’s a smooth driver and a smooth operator with the pawn shops. Wish i’d found this first… Might try and get it up and running to do a few songs on… Late 60s Kimberly (Teisco)
Dereche
, a photo by Rich in Orderly Manor on Flickr. A Derecho, also called a bow echo, is a widespread and long-lived windstorm that is associated with a fast-moving band of severe thunderstorms. Derechos are usually not associated with a cold front, but a stationary front. They occur mostly in July, but can occur at ...
Huntington, NY
, a photo by Rich in Orderly Manor on Flickr. Turns out the Furs have some very cool listeners…
Chattanooga
, originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. Rented bikes, almost died several times on said bike, thanks to red-runner Williams. We’re kind of an oddball in this country-soaked event but there were great people at the show and playing loud under the Tennessee sunset was really rather pleasant, if sticky, affair. I was asked ...

The beauty of these slick, overly digital modern rooms is that if you have they can sound great if you have the right person on the mixer. The house guy did a fine job for MJ and it really captured ...
Television
Firebirded, originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. I’ve never done a tv show before. Except a tiny thing for a Berkeley local station with the Please back in 2002. Actually i must dig that footage up and digitize it sometime. That was lo-fi but they gave us control of the set and so we ...
Listen to This
I love playing with the Furs. I still enjoy playing Love My Way every night because its a well arranged song with a mysterious lyrical core that still pushes my buttons. It broods, it swings and most importantly, it has that untouchable ambience that gets under your skin no matter how many times you hear ...
