I have to give my biased viewpoint here too. Joe definetely has the
experience behind him to play many different styles of music. Last time I saw
them, Joe had added his own flair to many of the sdre songs... I like it much
better, not to say that Nate wasn't a good bassist. He was as well. I didn't
enjoy the bass on HIFTBSO at all, and please remember, that it wasn't Joe
playing on the album.
Joe is a really nice guy, and I think the perfect addition to SDRE. (I
enjoyed Joe in the Posies too.)
