Adam Page in the house! (+WIN WIN!)
A few years ago I played a wee gig in the Pit bar (Bats), lovely wee intimate gig with some lovely folk listening.  One of these folk was a big burly bearded fellow I have never met before.  He introduced himself as Adam Page (late I find out he is a multi instrumentalist and loop pedal god!) and said he was stocked I played some Ani DiFranco.  He then pulled me aside telling me that I HAD to listen to this song on his mp3 player and he wanted to...
