SUMMARY:Paul Thorn Band
DESCRIPTION: Inveterate storyteller Paul Thorn credits his gift of gab
	 to being the son of a Pentecostal preacher. "You get to know how to g
	et along with almost everybody. You just have to sit down and start ge
	tting to know one another." Thorn has a lot about himself to tell. One
	 would expect to hear great stories from a guy who boxed Roberto "Hand
	s of Stone" Duran on national television\, made chairs for a living\, 
	skydives for fun\, had his first singing gig at age three\, and who ha
	ppens to be one of the South's finest songwriters. Paul Thorn doesn't 
	disappoint.Thorn started down his music path when he was not long out 
	of diapers. "As a child\, I sang in churches. My first paying gig was 
	at a revival with my father when everybody came around and put money i
	n my tambourine. After the service\, there was a little girl\, also ab
	out three years old\, who I had a crush on. I stuffed the money I got 
	all down in my pockets. After the service we sat around the back of th
	e church and I bought her a Coke with the money I'd earned. That was m
	y first paying gig\, and I guess my first date." Thorn writes and perf
	orms songs taken from life - good times\, bad times\, and everything i
	n between. His songs are often constructed on the universal themes of 
	love\, loss\, and yearning. But far from ever sounding commonplace\, T
	horn is able to weave in a slightly loopy Southern sense of the unexpe
	cted that draws you in and never lets go. It's a concert/party you won
	't want to miss! Donna Duncan supports\n
