He first met me when I was dating another DJ at the college radio station, WPGU in Urbana, IL. While I was in SF, I looked up my old friend from college, Jon Ginoli.
I left Silvestri, but when Casey called, I came running. It happened twice to me while I was working at Silvestri-which is just bizarre-but Casey looked at me, and I at him, and we both thought, “Oh, it’s YOU!” We picked up our conversation where it had left off in another time. The moment we met, we looked at each other and KNEW we had known each other in earlier lifetimes. I was based in Chicago and flew to Merchandise Marts around the country to do display work and I met him in the San Francisco showroom. I had worked with him as a display artist in 1987 at Silvestri Importers. My dearly departed friend Casey Alexander was creating an AIDS benefit in City Hall in San Francisco and he needed help. Missparker: The very beginning of this journey started with an AIDS benefit in San Francisco circa 1991. Definitely take the time to experience Exit or Entrance because I guarantee you’ll find this classic collection of tracks to be satisfying, riveting, and deftly ageless. In the meantime, here’s a chance to become either acquainted for the first time or perhaps reacquainted with Tim Cain and Boys’ Entrance. But, that seems to be an all-too-common and sad theme for the artists I promote here on Rave and Roll. It’s no wonder that Boys’ Entrance has earned the accolades of the music industry, and very confusing (for me and for many others) as to why they haven’t earned the public recognition they deserve. Tim’s voice is a lush alto that draws the listener in and captivates the soul. The lyrics are relevant, the arrangements are gorgeous, and the music is just as fresh and engaging as if it was recorded last week.
Due to the range of his material he can adapt to most kinds of events, whether providing chilled out background music or a full on, high energy performance to get people singing and dancing.Ī typical set would include covers from bands such as: The Beatles, Oasis, Paul Weller, The Verve, The Stereophonics, The Kooks, Chili Peppers, Kings Of Leon, Foo Fighters, The Cure, Green Day, The Lemonheads, Squeeze, Jack Johnson, The Jam, Rolling Stones, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, The Kinks, The Doors, Bob Marley, Kasabian, Radiohead, and many more.Listening to Exit or Entrance, it’s impossible to discern that these timeless tracks are three decades old. He performs acoustic covers drawing from a huge repertoire of rock, indie, folk and pop classics from 60's to modern day.
