All the reconnection I've been doing has made me a little nostalgic for some musicians I knew. Joe Bilotti and Joey Howell. We all went to the same highschool, though Mr. Howell was a grade or two above.
These are two of the nicest guys you'll ever meet and I'll be damned if you don't always find them with a smile on their faces.
As musicians, they were two of the best I've ever seen. Mr. Bilotti I believe studied music at my alma matter, Montclair State in NJ, while I believe Mr. Howell attended The Berklee College of Music in Boston.
Back when I was single in my twenties, these two played together in a band (of which I don't recall the name)...but they were just amazing together.
I only recently found out Mr. Bilotti was playing in Soft Parade and that made me try to hunt down what became of Mr. Howell, who is currently playing in a band called Parrot Beach. If you ever get the chance to see these bands with these two playing, go; you'll see true musicianship.
I maybe off on some of my info here, so anyone that knows, please feel free to correct me.
