Re: New Looper: Loopy Llama

[Dennis Montgomery <morpheus@speakeasy.net>]

Hi David,

  by any chance do you know Dennis Pearman?  He's a very old friend of 
mine living in Dexter.  He's been in the Eugene music scene since the 
late 70's.  I think his most recent musical appearances in town have 
been as part of the bands Mythic Sky & Bump Skool.
