Farewell,
Senator Dillwilly

Chad Beck has announced the demise of Senator Dillwilly. There will be no wake, no calling hours and no cremation. We are all the poorer for the loss of this band which brought joy to our small corner of the planet. Here are pictures from the last Senator Dillwilly performance, at Columbia Street West, on the Landing in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The historic date was April 21, 1998. Rest In Peace.

This is Tad Daigle on guitar. Seems as if Peter Jacobs, (bass guitar) and Kyle Stevenson (drums) eluded Otto's camera. Thanks and a tip of Otto's crested crown to music maven Fred Johnson of Muncie for straightenting me out on my names. Fred adds that for the historian, archived Dillwilly pictures are available from Chris Smith at csmith@mad.scientist.com. Aaaaooooooh, I'm gonna write him! Thanks, Fred.

Chad waves

Chad Beck is wearing a Red Ball Jets tee-shirt. Chad has good taste. Visit Chad at the Dash-In from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm; he is not lost to us. Read his column in WhatzUp! If he's not the best music writer in Indiana, he's one of the top three.

Audience

Lots of Dillwilly fans turned out, none suspecting that they were hearing a swan song.

Otto's camera didn't really get the whole story here. We don't know how that happened. Listen to the CD and live on the memories. Good things sometimes don't last. Goodbye, Dillwillies.
