THAT WAS THEN....THIS IS NOW! THE DOUGHBOYS
Gar dropped me an e-mail recently letting me know he's doing well and having a great time playing with The Doughboys. He hopes you'll all come out to see them. He wrote their new hit song "Black Sheep" that came in 2nd for "The Coolest Song In The World" for 2008 on Little Steven's Underground Garage radio show! Here's a couple articles

Gar Francis AKA Plainfield Slim
