His former guitarist Laurence Juber wrote the music for "Gilligan's Island, the Musical," which is launching a national tour. Juber says fate led him from McCartney to Gilligan. Here’s his story: http://www.ocregister.com/life/juber-says-mccartney-1998423-hope-wings
P.S. He's also written the music for the upcoming, "A Very Brady Musical."

What he usually doesn't say is he has been married to sherwood's daughter for nearly 20 years!

Uh, he absolutely does say that. He's more proud of their marriage and their kids than anything in his life.

I am a big fan of laurence and his wife whom I have met at beatlefests many times, he is extremely talented and always very pleasant...I was just saying that the papers usually don't write that he has been doing brady and gilligan projects because he is sherwood's son-in-law and yes because he is very talented.....after all he hasn't worked with Paul in over 25 years!

Isn't Hope Sherwood Juber the wife of Lawrence Juber? She is Sherwoods daughter isn't she. She also did reacurring roles in the Brady Bunch and was, I believe the Dialogue coach for Rescue from Gilligan's Island. If it's the same person I am thinking of.

Also, The Mosquitoes were obviously based on The Beatles.
