S OME TLC
The lineup was a little unusual for these
veteran players as a new lineup formed
for the first time, as Tastes Like Chicken, at
the Pray for Wind dinner at Stonehedge
Gardens June 25. Mark Daly plays guitar,
with Ed Dietrich on bass and Ryan Kol-
berg on percussion. “It’s always nice to
get together,” Daly said, joking that
“Ryan is usually playing guitar or bass but
he’s on the kit tonight, he’s multi-talented
and, of course, I hate him!” Daly and Di-
etrich have also played together in the
band Hop Trip Stumble Fall. The Pray For
Wind event was sponsored by Columbia
Gorge Windsurfing Associat8ion (hence
the band’s backdrop) with proceeds sup-
porting CGWA youth programs.
