...know what? He's right. The iMacs do look better when the lights come on earlier. Odwalla bottles are better with twist-off caps. The common man did want colorful computers that delivered plug-and-play access to the Internet...
...Jobs is deeply into this. He sits there nibbling on dried fruit, quaffing his latest Odwalla fruit juice--he loves the new twist-off caps--and perusing the timeline like a rabbi studying Talmud, looking up every few minutes with another pressing question: When do the TV ads start?

Each band member is a real artist in his own right, and together Ian Steams, Reggie Martell, Ty Gibbons '00 and Frisbay create a unique sound. It is hard to succinctly describe a song set that included jazz breakdowns, a slide didgeridoo, the drummer on vocals and a jig. Some lounge, some first wave ska and some B.B. King slipped through...
