Why not

Post by steverok »

Takin' no prisoners? Oh well, talk about puttin' a face to a name. I love Rickenbackers, but I love drums more. The title was to attract views, but I may be slammed for it, in the end. I don't play enough drums, anymore, but I love to bash 'em when so inclined :

Cool! But you really need to post a song featuring your Rickenbackers....

I want to see you play your now-famous Steve Carsello signature 360/12 on one of your original tunes.... 8)

And maybe I'll post a Rickentune or two myself sometime soon! :wink:

Remember Meli, I posted this under "The Others", which is non-Ric content. In due time ... I need to think of a good one for that.

Thank you Brian !

Ohhhh yeah.... Trotty's an awesome drummer and a fine guitarist, too. Had the pleasure of seeing him play at the 75th Confluence.... :)

Here's a short clip from the last Rickenbacker Jam we had when Graham Griffiths visited in April. Please note that this was a spontanteous jam and without any rehearsal. At least it gave me the chance to do my Keith Moon impersonation! :mrgreen:

That's pretty cool - you look like Keith Moon, sans the black hair! I would have liked to have heard the drum set better, but it was drowned out by that distorted vocal. I like the Keith Moon imitation too. I am way too stiff to imitate Moon, but you have the right approach !

Cheers,
Steve

Hey,!!!!
That distorted vocal was caused by Mr. Trotts perfect "Moonie" impersonation!
I'm surprised anyone could even play, let alone sing, as we were all laughing too much!


Add a few beers to that, and it's a pretty darn good excuse!! :D
Thanks for posting that Darren, it was another great day organized by you! Too much fun!
Good memories Graham!! :lol:
