      I agree. Scott Lucas is a true artist and has obviously never compromised on that path. I went to a show on a whim in '96 or '97, was completely gobsmacked by the performance, and have been a lifelong fan ever since. The guy is a legend. If I could ever get a message to Scott Lucas it would be, "Thank you for the music. It means a lot to me. And thank you for continuing to make it!"
