Mike Keneally - guitar, keyboard, vocals
Bryan Beller - bass & backing vocals
Joe Travers - drums & backing vocals
Nick D'Virgilio - drums (replaces Joe on tracks 09, 10) & backing vocals (tracks 03, 09)
Nick D'Virgilio was at Progtoberfest playing drums & singing in The Fringe, who played right before MK/BFD.
A set that had a rough beginning (mostly technical gremlins) and a couple weird moments, but overall a Keneally BFD set that was not nearly long enough! Thanks to MK and Reggie's for being cool about recording!
Enjoy!!
