Great idea, Fran. Might I suggest a band clip at the beginning of the pages - something more appropo to the band. I couldn't get the songs to play unless I allowed MS to install another media player plug in, that was annoying. I like the individual pages and would like to hear more music more easily. Please accept these suggestions as simply something that would enhance the visitor's experience. I think the site is a great step forward.

Wow, what an interesting website. I really enjoyed my visit there. You are an exceptionally good musician and vocalist. I didn't realize you were so good. I also didn't realize you were such a handsome fellow. You remind me of a young Dean Martin, well ok, a middle aged Dean Martin Thanks for sharing your fine talents Fran, Best to you and yours, Bebop
I just got done playing “Flight of the Bumblebee” on your piano notes with my computer keyboard!
I kid you not. That is one of the most (if not the most) brilliant, creative, and inviting web site I’ve seen in years of viewing musician’s sites...particularly your “songs“ page. It says everything that represents music...warmth, easy on the senses, professional looking, creative, soothing colors.
May I ask…did you do that yourself, or if someone else designed it, can you put me in touch with them? I’ve been looking for a good graphics person for a while now for my own site. I’m really impressed with yours!

cass ... great to see you back ... hope you are doing well ..... t.
Fran....thanks for that info. But I'm not sure I understand how you went about it?
Did you have an idea of how you wanted your web site to look or he simply designed one for you out of his head and that's how it came out?
Also....I looked at the other sites he designed (viewed on his web site) and NONE of them look as good or as professional as yours. Is there something I'm missing?

Fran-good site. Last sentence on the right is incomplete. Needs a comma between it and the previous one, or slight restructuring. (Hard for an old copy guy not to notice these things). Easy fix, though. Very innovative!
