In their conversation we discuss: Mark’s wedding in Newcastle England and his Honeymoon in South Africa and we discuss growing up in Durham, England and his relocation to Miami. They discuss how two guys in a band from Bismarck, North Dakota found Mark and why they decided to include him in their band and why Mark took them up on their offer. They talk gear, Mark tells us about his Fender Custom Shop ‘61 Strat and his VOX Night Train amp which Mark mistakenly calls solid state (it’s a 15watt tube amp).
