I've the cassette, love. That was my last year doing the faire circuit, due to health, financial, and emotional reasons (Working for Nathan in Texas and the first part of Bristol nearly killed me). My passion for M&T can be directly attributed to (blamed on? *giggle*) Doug and Ysabet. I'd hooked up with them early on in the run of Bristol, and the Pig & Whistle performance of M&T was a daily hit.
I'm fairly certain that if it had not been for Doug and Ysabet's intervention, and the from-the-shadows interventions of a couple of others, that Bristol would have destroyed me. The 'family' I was traveling with had self-destructed in Texas, my travelling mate had become a rampaging alcoholic, and I had taken to spending long hours sitting out in the parking lot staring at the horizon. While there are some good memories... it was not a good time for me.
Insane is probably a -gentle- way to put my state... and is probably why we didn't directly cross paths then.
