Otis, the fifth member of the band

Otis

"Little Otis" was one of nature's genial souls...

When just a youngster, Otis was abandoned in a local park; there he met Susan Monroe and decided to adopt her.

Though a warm hearted and affable fellow, he was a force to be reckoned with and possessed an effective right hook, left upper cut combo, as the neighborhood cats discovered the hard way if they tried to mess with him.

Otis never missed a band practice. When he heard the music start up, he would stroll in to listen for a while, and then curl up on the bodhran case for a snooze.

Sadly, Otis is no longer with us. Sleep easy, little friend...
