  • I thought I recognised the inimitable playing of that eight-handed,incomparably-gift­ed,superbly dexterous Mr.Brier!How does one pronounce his name,I wonder;does it rhyme with the german word Bier?A delightful piece.This band is sooo enjoyable!

  • @Squarerig No, "Brier" is pronounced like the German name "Breier".

  • Is this the pink hat society?

  • Heh! It's a Raspberry trademark or somethin'. At a recent Raspberry Jam Band concert, there were a couple of actual red hat ladies in the audience. Their shirts said "queen" and "vice queen".
