On the rare occasions when we did see a review after the fact, there was hardly a time when they didn't get something wrong, tho. Like the time they gave Ben Schubert a new name that stuck with him thru-out his tenure with the group. The SF Chronicle printed his name as Benubert, and that's what we called him from then on.
Sometimes we suspected that they'd never really been to the show, but just grabbed some info from our bio and made up the rest. I probably saved a couple of those write-ups, but I haven't had time yet to start my scrap-book. They'd sometimes credit Bob Shane for playing the saw, for example. Just blatant incompetence that you could only laugh at and scratch your head. "And these people actually have jobs at newspapers???"
