It's also a wonderful development for Andre's career I think. Way to go Dre! I'm stuck here in the "Orygun" outback where nuthin' ever happens. I wish I could be there. I haven't seen DT perform live since I saw him at the club, Luna Park, in L.A. many years back. All of you folks back there within a 500 mile radius owe it to yourselves to check out at least some of it.
