We opened the studio up to some of the local bands who were kicking around. It was just a shaking of the trees really to see what might happen.  

The gesture was well-intended on our part but maybe not always appreciated. And even if some success had come of the initiative we would have seen no benefit. Studios work for little and nothing yet they are often key players in development.

Still, I was happy in these days just to be doing stuff. The Topplers were a relevant band with an excellent graphic artist in Alan Henry their bass player.
