| Our first gig as "Call Us A Cab" was on May 5th, 2013. Our final gig was on September 20th, 2025. |
It has been our great honor to have provided great music to everyone who have seen us over the past 12 years. For those of you who don't know, the reason for our retirement is Mike's age. He always said he would play until he died, but recently he decided that he would rather death didn't happen in the middle of a song on stage. You don't need to experience that. Plus, he couldn't convince Dave or Todd to launch immediately into "Knocking on Heaven's Door" when the time came, which would have been jolly fun, for some of you and tasteless for most of you. |
On a personal note from Mike: Yet as age has crept up on me, performing hasn't been as pleasing as it once was. I've fallen over on stage for no discernable reason a couple of times in the last year. Both my dexterity and fretboard execution and my diminishing vocal range and clarity have combined with the overall aches in my body to make it harder to enjoy performing (and just moving in general.) So, I want to thank Dave and Todd (and Ron) for their years of friendship and musical comradery, but most of all to thank each of you for allowing me to pursue one of life's great pleasures, (playing music), for as long as I have. You gave me more than I could ever give back." |
"There is nothing wrong with me that hasn't been apparent to everyone else since I first joinged a band, at the age of twelve - starting 5th grade in 1963. I've always been uniquely focused on things that it seems often, only I appreciate (for example: both the psychedelic rock of Iron Butterfly and the intimate folk of Eric Anderson - the smooth jazz of Lee Ritenour and the timeless country of Willie Nelson). However, I have always played to please the audience.
