	From Wedding Gigs to The Wallflowers, Mario Calire Grooves by Reno Kling Early summer, 1994. Nineteen-year-old drummer Mario Calire is playing a gig with his Meters-style funk band at The Mint in L.A. Calire is the precocious middle son of keyboard player Jamie Calire of the `70s California pop band, America ("Horse With No Name"). Unknown to Calire, the youngest son of another musician and American icon, Bob Dylan, is in the audience. Young Jake Dylan turns to manager, Andy Slater, and says, "I'd like to play with him."
