you to everyone who has help support Dr. Theopolis for
not only the last year but for the 10 fabulous years the
group has been playing and entertaining audiences. From
the early days at the Cobalt Lounge (they were the
only club that would book us!!), to the various festivals
and stages of the Northwest, we tip our hat to you, the
fans who continually showed your support.

A Decade of thanks to
our friend
Dr. Theopolis would like to take a moment to thank and remember
our friend Marko Van Der Werff (1951-2011). Marko
was a long time friend and attended many of shows, especially
all the early performances. He also periodically borrowed
the band gear to use. You can see Russ Bohall playing
Marko's 1960s Supro amp in early photos of Tonic
Lounge gigs, and a blue sparkle Custom head and cab on the
Crystal
Ballroom video. The group used a Victoria bassman on
the Voice of the Future album on loan from him.
We like to say thanks for the years of patronage
to our friend Marko and all our other fans, both long time
and recently acquired.
