After last night’s No Small Children gig, drummer Nicola B made a statement I have been waiting to hear for the past couple of decades. Remarking about the previous night’s show in Seattle at The Central Tavern, she said that they had “turned the room.”. Basically, it means that while, at first, no one paid much attention, by the last song, everyone was on board. Even dancing, she said (quite enthusiastically, I might add).

It all started when Laurie Biagini posted a link to a video (Lydia Purple) by The Collectors, a legendary Pac NW band out of British Columbia back in the sixties (and, yes, B.C. is in the Pac NW). My buddy Howie Wahlen followed that up by taking pictures and posting both sides of The Collectors‘ first album jacket and the die was cast.
