Which one are you, Dane?

That's cool! Looks like you're having a blast.

I did have a hilarious good time, 'reliving my youth'...the band is full of folks with great chops and even better senses of humor, as you might guess. Those 'quads' are really heavy, though...heavier than a 4080/12, and with a lot more torque on the shoulders and spine as a result of them hanging way out in the air...and of course, I'm not picking at them with a Herco 'Heavy', I'm beatin' the **** out of them with a pair of Promark 5A's, which adds to the damage. I'm still feeling the pain....but it's a happy kind of pain. In another ten years (or less), I won't be able to do this kind of thing anymore, so now's the time to bang away...

"Who knows how to party?
Boba Fett knows how to party!"

A sample of last night's madness:


That's how the night began...it proceeded down the street for blocks and back again, and ended in a dance club about a mile away. Great fun...(yrs truly on bass drum)...

'Tuba Steve is da man!"

Uhh, wow! I'm not sure what that's all about, but it looks like everyone is having a great time!

[kiramdear]

What a blast! I love your group!

You guys practicing for the Halloween version of Mardi Gras?

That looks like a whole lot of fun.

With this band, every day is Halloween...and Mardi Gras.

Marvelous. I would like to request Rainy Day Women #12 and 35.

[wayang]

I'll move your requests up the ladder, Peter...but for now we're too busy adding 'Push It' and 'Apache' to the list...

Here's a clip of Friday night's 'bombing run'...first 'hit' on the Museum Of Contempororay Art:

I'd love to see the faces of people who don't know what to expect before they hear you. It's got to be a nice mix of shock and delight.
