Just wondering. Is the band Brother ( www.brothermusic.com) Popular Down Under? They're from there, and they seem to be virtually unknown in the U.S., where they have a very dedicated, albeit small, following. I've seen them three times, and they were great each time. Their venues in the States seem confined to Irish/cultural fesivals and small clubs.
(I originally posted this in the "Miscellaneous" forum, but thought maybe it applies to this forum as well.) |

looks like they enjoy playing gigs in eastern PA... |

Largely because she's a huge Brian May fanatic, and well if you've heard Brian May's singing voice and you've heard Brother, you'd probably wonder if there was some kind of familial relation.
I do remember enjoying a lot of the stuff she copied onto cassette for me.
Oh yeah, weird thing, a couple times here at work I've found a printout regarding Brother concerts that someone either forgot on the printer or just hadn't picked up yet. Never found out who the other Brother fan is here in the office....
