I was the drummer for the Modifiers back in 1987-88
when Milf & Bob were out here in LA. We did a few gigs and thought we were gonna break out.
I remember those days, Chuck. In fact I worked the PA for one of your small gigs (at a community center in Hermosa). If you don't remember, it's not big deal, but you might. Bob and Milf almost always called me "The Hoove" (thus my username here).
I was really torn up when I read about Milf's passing (either on another forum or an older version of this - can't remember). The last time I was in LA was in '96 and I meant to look him up, but I could never seem to get a moment for myself. I missed a lot of friends on that trip. Damn it, I really loved Milf (snarky curmudgeon that he was).
Hey, I notice some other posts that Bob is (or was) "around" Central BBQ? Is that an eatery in Memphis? If someone knows his whereabouts, please tell him "The Hoove" - Mark Hoover - has been looking for him (damn it), and will not take "just tell him I'm dead" for an answer. Tell him I live in Japan now - that'll blow his mind, I'm sure.
Browbeat a mailing address out of him (if I know Bob, he doesn't have a telephone and almost certainly no internet), send the information to <groovin.hooves@gmail.com>
