Don't preserve it, don't preserve it. You kill it...thanks Martin, I know exactly what you mean!...Your pickled stuff's the best! Thanks for sharing your ...oh so funny, rare and well seasoned, human commentries and of course, YOUR music. Enjoy the sun and many more greatful audiences to come. Greetings. From New Zealand...where 25 or 30 years ago, for the first time in my life (!) having grown up in Bavaria, I was lucky enough to have heard English Folk Music played, in front of me, at the Bunker in Devonport. By you! Changed my life! Thank you!
