I had a blast as well! Great, great jam. It was a pleasure playing with
all of you and the stage, sound, equipment, venue, etc was awesome! Felt
like a real gig :)

Thank you to Pete, Steve, Tony and everyone who organized and lugged
gear all the way to Budapest and made this a special night. I know Steve
was recording it - please post when it's available. Will be fun to give
it a listen.

Mdz, you will have to make guest appearances cause this can't be the
last time.

Bill
