Mojo,
due to all respect but Sean is right, Mover is as far from Mod or anything
related as something can be. I don't think they even have anything in common
with Frannies and Jacks new image and music, not at all. We've played with
them a little while back, I don't want to get into a detailed description as
they are nice guys and I don't want to upset people and let it stand like
that.
It's not really a question of where is Mod going to and where did it come
from and the rest of it, I don't even think they are really '60s orientated
at all.
