Subject: Tee-shirts!!
We're ready to take the tee-shirt design to the silk screener. This will be a very
limited edition tee-shirt. They are only $6 plus three dollars shipping (for up to
3 shirts) if you're in the US If you're outside the US. shipping is more - details
below. This is strictly not for profit - just for fun - the love of Steve's music and
our group. By request we have decided to make the logo and lettering larger
across the front so they can be easily read from a few feet away. This way it will
be easier to spot other group members at the upcoming concert. They are on
high quality, heavy weight tee-shirts. I choose the natural color because it
reminds me of John Barleycorn and the logo and lettering can be in either blue
or red (not both). You may remember which logo won the election from the
previous SP. The quickest way to get them is to E-mail me now, then snail mail
a check. Let me know how many & what sizes you need now so we will be sure
to make enough in that size. Sizes range from youth small through adult XXL
but the XXL cost $1.50 more. E-mail me straight away at Loudncraig@aol.com

Pulled this off one of the AOL things and felt that I should forward it. :-)
Steve Winwood said it was ``not out of the question'' for the group Traffic
to get back together again. He's working on an album with producer Narada
Michael Walden. He'll be touring this fall, he said, playing ``small,
special, intimate shows.''
YES!!!!!!!!

May 20th -- Mary Clare's birthday.
Listen--did you see Sweetie, er Stevie, on the Grammys? How does he manage
to get cuter and cuter all the time? Gimme a break--I'm trying to remain
professional and music-centered about this!
