hahaha - you think he will know!!! haha i've emailed him before about specifics, he can't bloody remember - he'll be as vague as we are...

i bet he comes back and says sometime between '1990-1992ish' (if anything at all, he never seems to mention UW much these days, although does still bash out an odd tune now and a again...)

(I'd ask Steve H, but he's also a bit vague on times around the early 90's - a lot of 'things' were going on around then that have affected peoples memories)

but if anyone wants to try and ask Emerson's on facebook and myspace...

Thanks for looking that stuff up, Matt. I thought it was around then, but then I saw those couple articles that were saying "10 years" and "1989", and it made me wonder.

I'm more amazed that the article on the right calls Dirt Epic (sic) a "lumbering blasphemy, the only non-event here". And then goes on to praise the "magical guitars" of frickin' Surfboy, haha.
