Happy Anniversary

Today, or at least this week, marks the twentieth anniversary of Marley's Ghost. Sitting around Jon's kitchen table in 1986 Lake Sherwood,CA, putting together songs to go out and perform our St. Patrick's Day gigs, or playing the first Strawberry Spring Music Fest(1986 Memorial Day Weekend) as a trio – who knew we'd still be having this much fun?
Not me.

To all of you who have supported us, bought our eight CDs and six solo CDs, our T-shirts, DVDs, cassettes and posters, come to our live shows and laughed, cried, clapped, wore matching thematic outfits, hired us for festivals, shows, corporate events, parties, weddings or to play outside your villa, ran sound for us, put us up or just put up with us, shared a meal with us, or maybe hung out with us swapping songs and tunes until we fell over– THANKS!
It is still fun, which is why we're still doing it.
My advice? Go start a band.
Sure – it is insane, but it surely does make you feel good sometimes.

Hey fellas,
Congrads on putting up and putting out for so long!!
I first heard you guys 15 years ago at my very first Strawberry, and I have been dancing to that music ever since. My feet love you, my feathered hat loves you and pretty much everything in between loves your music!
Thank you is not enough, but there you are...
