Cool, thanks for that. I got to see Tunnels - I think at Schubas in Chicago - but it was just the 3 piece (no violin). Also got to have a beer with Percy that night. Cool guy! Marc Wagnon is unbelievable. I saw a version of Brand X at Martyr's with Percy, Frank Katz, Goodsall, and I THINK Wagnon in place of a keyboardist. Foggy memory on that one...
I'm not sure, but it's possible I saw Marc Wagnon in the early 90's with Doctor Nerve. I remember I talked briefly with Nick Didkovsky after the concert. I told him I just got "Transforms - The Nerve Events Project". He thought I must have been the only one in Europe to have that album at that moment...
A year or two after the NEARfest performance, Tunnels played in Cleveland, and I had a really good conversation with Percy. He mentioned that at NEARfest, they played without a soundcheck, so they were struggling with bad monitor mixes and such. Plus, when John Goodsall sat in, before they even had a chance to tune up, Goodsall counted off the song he was doing with them, so he was out of tune during the performance.
I will say, though, whatever irregularities Goodsall displayed onstage, he was great to hang out with that afternoon. He signed the albums I brought. He had this little lizard sitting on his shoulder, and when I handed him Do They Hurt Hurt, he pointed at the alligator on the cover and said it was the lizard's ancestor.
Saw them at the last Prog In The Park. Was not ready for it. Wow.
I saw them at NF and PitP. They kind of bored me. Noodlefest bordering on snoozefest. Talented but just not that exciting to me.
