Fluffy, et al:
I've enjoyed reading some of this board and catching up a bit on my Tim Reynolds info. This is my first visit to the board, but based on my reading of the "How I got into Tim" thread from a while back, I suspect I'm one of Tim's older fans. I first heard Tim back in 1986-87 or so when I was in college in Harrisonburg, Virginia. TR3 would occasionally play at a club called Calhoun's and their shows were always great. There was this bohemian-looking waitress in granny glasses from Spanky's (a nearby sandwich restaurant) who would always dance by herself in front of the band as if she were doing kung fu (or was it T'ai Chi?). I don't really know who all was in TR3 in those days, but their shows were always terrific.
One night, probably in 1987, TR3 brought a Richmond-based band named Secrets with them to play a set. I quickly became a Secrets fanatic, hearing them play their unique jazz/fusion in many venues throughout Virginia. Tim would sometimes sit in with them along with trumpeter John D'earth and other great local musicians. I was really bummed when their drummer left Secrets and ended up with another new Charlottesville band. I thought he'd made a big mistake, little did I know. But Carter Beauford has done pretty well with the Dave Matthews Band since then. Secrets broke up a few years later but keyboardist Butch Taylor from Secrets is currently touring with DMB now. Keith Horn is one of the finest bass players in Nashville (last I heard he was with Trisha Yearwood), Dane Bryant became the keyboardist for Clint Black. All those guys have done so well, and deserve all their success and then some. I still occasionally see Butch Taylor at the audio recording facility (In Your Ear) where he is a staff composer/musician. I'm a film director (mostly corporate/commercial) and do all my audio post work there.
I hadn't realized that Tim had left Charlottesville for points west. I'll have to get out there sometime and catch a show when he plays around there. I'm glad to find this site and be able to keep up with TR's new stuff. I know his guitar chops have only gotten better through the years, but he was already pretty special "back in the day."
Best regards,
Dan

Hey man, I assume that you went to JMU; I'm a junior there right now. I had heard about Tim playing at Calhouns but I wasn't sure because, judging from things you and others have said, the place seems to have changed for the worse. The guy who is in charge of booking music at Calhouns is a real asshole, and it's hard for me to picture the "old Calhouns" setting in the way it is now.

Yeah, I went to JMU. Only went to Calhoun's when TR3, Secrets, or one of the JMU bands was playing (don't remember the names other than Animal Logic, and some band with a lead singer named Billy - I'll have to dig out my "JMU Rocks" cassette tape with all the JMU student bands on it!). It was upstairs with some kind of open window section overlooking the downstairs. One night one of my friends was standing on a table and fell backwards out the window and down to the floor below. Fortunately he wasn't hurt to bad - he was already pretty heavily medicated prior to the fall, I guess.
I haven't been to Calhoun's since the end of the 80's probably. I still miss driving by and not seeing "Players" where it used to be just south of Court Square. Is Spanky's still there? And Jess's Quick Lunch (greatest hot dogs in the world)?

Spanky's and Jess's are still there and I doubt they've changed at all. I've never heard of Players though.

Welcome aBOARD, dthompsn!! Glad you stopped by, or should I say discovered our little community. Thanx for sharing. I don't know where you live now, but I am getting very close to releasing the fall tour dates. May I suggest getting on the email list. That way you will get my emails about what TR is up to. Hopefully we will be playing somewhere near you and you won't have to travel far to catch TR.
Peace & Keep the Faith

Sorry about the monitor, everybody.
And what's the deal with the fucking wardrobe guy? He forgot buttons, but he brought the damn top and bottom? Fuck him, if he's going to forget buttons and bring the clothes...bastard. I think she needs to take off those clothes. Damnit.

I bet if Melissa made those same poses as Katie, you'd be singing a different tune........

You idiot! He can't play the harmonica! He'd be playing some other blowing instrument......that's right! The skin flute.
