I met Mike Roy when I was a little kid, because his family went to the same church as my family and my grandfather, Wallace Memorial up near Washington. Then I forgot Mike Roy. One day Mike Roy came and slept in my room because his girlfriend was roommates with my roommate's sister. I didn't really recognize Mike Roy but he looked funny to me so I stared for a minute and he said he recognized me and I told him I was Bob Bain's grandson and then he remembered me and I remembered him because his family is all red-headed and they all have the same mouth, which really stretches in this funny way when he sings.
Mike Roy just finished recording his new album. If you haven't heard the first one, you've really missed out. You can download both albums from his website, if you are so inclined. I recommend Unwanted Hero Cowboy or She's Gone from the debut album, while Bird and Baltimore are two of the better selections from the newer album. Josiah and Ryan, you are two people who should be paying particular attention, I think you might like him.
