The origin of the nickname "Three-String" (not to be confused with "G-String," which is another story altogether) is worth knowing.   We were a third of the way through the night at a bar in Fairfax, when all of a sudden (when does this ever happen?), Kevin breaks a string on his bass.   Without a replacement, he got through the rest of the night with only three strings by teaching himself completely new fingerings -- while he was playing! -- for all of our songs.   It was an incredible thing to see   [Kevin's note:   Good thing no one was recording that night!].
