I'm just a fan. I first "discovered" Schooner Fare on the CBS Sunday morning show. I got their 10 Years album and enjoyed it so much I got most of the others. As I listened, I soon became particularly taken by the bass sounds and the soaring vocals of Tom Rowe. Then I noticed that many of the songs the trio did were also attributed to him. I never had the pleasure of seeing them or meeting any of the group(I do have a vidio of them), but I feel badly that Tom is gone. I hope that someone close to Chuck, Steve, and Tom's family will pass on my condolances. He'll be missed 'way over here in Missouri.
