Howard "Howie" Lindeman commented on Robert McTigue's group SPL - Georgia"Danger isn't even the word here they are DEADLY because they are stealing our gigs from under us with the lack of knowledge, lack of trust and honor and the fact they ask for $500.00 or less a week in salary and get it...while we lose gigs."
Mark 'Twister' Archibald commented on Robert McTigue's group SPL - Georgia"They don't know what they don't know. Which is pretty much everything. That's what makes them dangerous. And the people that hire them know even less. More dangerous yet!"
