Do yourself a favor and stop by to see Gene if you can. Gene is a genuine talent as a singer/songwriter/trad singer, etc. Check out his myspace page and then try to break down some of his guitar work. It's deceptive in that it sounds simple, but is actually very complex and always in perfect colusion w/t words/melody. Hope at some point he'll be able to come stateside as I think he'll do very well over here. My wife(who's a songwriter, too) and I are working on an arrangement of Gene's song 'If' which we'll be performing(with permission of course!)at varios functions asa we get the harmonys and guitar parts where we want them. Have fun at the gig, Gene. All the best, Jeff
