Bill there is one in Westport harbor. What a beauty.


I like some of his stuff although i wouldn't consider myself a big fan. He definitely has talent and what the hell do I know I ride a bike on the canal in the dark freezing my arse off while normal people are home warm asleep.:rollem:

What's the name of the one in Westport, some salmonise sounding verbage.

Man wasted his talent.

Can't remember Bill but my BIL told me he was some kind of banker or financial guy. Obviously he has a ton of cash to afford it though. It is a real beauty of a boat with all they nicest leather and beautiful wood accents. Dual jet drives I am pretty sure.

BTW how is the knee?

yeah, love the guy. grew up on LI. first time i saw him was MSG in 1983 or 84. man, he blew that place apart. one funny note. that song downeast alexa, was written (mid 90's?) about the plight of LI east end fisherman. thought that for years. when that song came out, he was even arrested with some local east end fisherman on LI seine netting stripers, to show his support for their cause. fast forward to 2006, hartford civic center. i saw him in concert, loved him.....he talked about how that song was written "for his friends on the vineyard"....shoot if you listen to the words he talks about, montauk, block island sound....go figure. i guess depending on the venue, the credits change! the yankee stadium live dvd is a blast, check it out if you can.
