The influence on my is less noticable now, there was a time when you could hear Townsend all over my style.
I love both of these ... but Drowned ... wow
These are from the second night of shows, the first night ran late, so someone had the bright idea of giving Pete some brandy ... his show the first night was ... well ... not one of his best
Every time I hear him do this song acoustic, I just listen in awe. Then I swear I will practice more ... then I want to give up entirely. Then I think at my age, giving up is more practical. I wish I was this worried about sounding good about 30+ years ago ...

Looking back at them again, now- wow did these three tracks have a huuuge influence on my playing style.

When I first heard these tracks in the 80's, seeing one of your gods as fallible was an INCREDIBLE motivator for all things being possible.
