I have trawled through most sights - and the information is immense - but special mention has to go to J O'B. Each sight is a labour of love but John seems to have taken it even further. I strongly recommend that if you need or want to find any Roxy related info then don't hesitate, pay his sight a visit.

If the Roxy reunion was such a success, I would expect Roxy fans would love to see this band. Mike Mike and all, I can't speak for the band's other plans, but as far as showcasing the guys again for A Mad Affair 2(Another Time Another Place) goes next Spring, I'm afraid the mountain will have to come to Mohammed. But rest assured, as there was so much interest in RM RM from across the pond last time round, we are taking into account trying to find a date that will correspond with bargain airfare prices BEFORE they go up for the peak Easter period onwards. The venue city will also be directly on all major cheaper (and expensive) air operator's routes. And as far as our UK friends are concerned it might even be cheaper (and quicker) to fly here than to get on our archaic train system for a London rendezvous. Wheels are in motion, we'll keep you posted when we have confirmed details.

Hi Daniel. The streets of Washington DC are safer than they were last month but they have always been, and remain, risky. Especially after dark! - Too many guns, knives and overly stressed persons with little to no skill dealing with their stress in non-violent ways. It is a pity, but the truth is, a female alone in the District is more at risk of violent encounter than others are. National statistics on violent crime indicate a downward trend. Teenage suicides and fatal auto accidents at an all time high - the Baby Boomers babies are dying all over the place! Best wishes.
