I had to call my wife on that one. She is from Murfreesboro (my folks moved there as well while I was at Ole Miss in 78 but I never lived there)....anyhow of course she knew immediately. She's a bit younger than I (8 years) and was married to a Nashville musician once and knows the "scene" here better than I. She always liked the White Animals of early to mid 80s fame here.

Murfreesboro has had a number of small but significant bands come out of there.

When were you there? Did you know a longhaired blonde fellow who like to fight named Nelson?...he's a longtime family friend and a character around Murfreesboro....

I was there from '95 to '99. I don't know a Nelson, but you're right about Murfreesboro being a little bit of a scene, now that I think about it. There were two other excellent bands in M'boro when I was there, younger guys, and much poppier sounding -- they were both on the SpongeBath label that operates out of Murfreesboro. I can picture them onstage but I'm totally blanking on the names. Oh well, not real important anyway...
