"Go ahead, throw all you've got at Medicine Dream. Feedback from microphones, a production manager running across the stage every few minutes, missing keyboard sound -- nothing can detract from a show by this fabulous band, as proven Saturday in Sydney Laurence Theatre.

Lead singer Paul Pike broke a guitar string during the opening song. He continued to have problems with his guitar, at one point telling the audience, "I don't think I was meant to play guitar tonight."

It didn't matter. Pike's flute playing mesmerized the audience, while George Newton displayed his talent on acoustic and electric guitars. Eventually, Pike got his own guitar back.

Saturday's show was a celebration of Medicine Dream's latest CD, "Tomegan Gospem." The Alaska Native Heritage Center sponsored the event, which offered a rare opportunity to hear a full array of Medicine Dream's musical styles. . ."
