Re: Keith Frank ?

OK..thanx....I sorta figured there was that 'breadwinner' and possibly ' caretaker' role he had/has with the Frank family .
Been to plenty of his gigs, but I met him in Eunice once at a Mardi Gras event...nice quietly spoken guy. I was intrigued at the way he set up the band so that all of the PA stuff was at his immediate right hand side fingertips, and he constantly twiddled and adjusted the settings...and shot out the occasional look at band members to let them know who was in charge.
Me-thinks Keith is a leader of men !..he's a hell of a drummer and gittar player too from what I saw and heard.

BTW Ganey, that question you asked way back...that Aussie organisation is a bit of an enigma . I'd say the East Coast folk may have a better idea but I don't have connections there. Good looking web site but the name is never heard in the industry here, or on radio/TV/press etc. etc. Ray Abshire has played Australia..Steve Riley, Sean Ardoin, Dirk Powell, Christine Balfa I think, too...they may know?
