Yeah, they said that they were from Pitt, and you're right, they really are that good. Do you think that they've wanted to stay smallish? I understand they play to really huge crowd back home in Pitt. They played some of their classic stuff (or, what Suzanne told me was classic stuff). I do remember Cigarette. Mostly it was covers---sometimes a medley of covers interwoven together---and some solo work that they are all doing. Overall, a great time though. They were clearly happy to be back in Philly (and to get a few good nights sleep without the kids waking them up) and their Philly groupies were happy to have them there. Is there a particular CD or two that you recommend? Hey Jim. Yeah, they said that they were from Pitt, and you’re right, they really are that good. Do you think that they’ve wanted to stay smallish?

I've been listening to the Clarks since high school, and I've always been surprised that they never really made it. They were on Lettermen a couple of years back - but still, no big hits or anything. I'm assuming they played the standards: Cigarette, Penny on the Floor, Born Too Late... Glad you enjoyed them - you know they’re Pittsburgh boys, right?
