Well, Fine China is no more. It has been for a while, but for some reason we never posted on this site. Rob is working on a new project with Ronnie Martin from Joy Electric called The Foxglove Hunt. You can visit their myspace www.myspace.com/thefoxglovehunt for more info. The store has been temporarily turned off, but the items will be available again shortly via www.thefoxglovehunt.com. For now, "The Jaws of Life" can be most easily obtained via iTunes. Thanks!
