About me: I started playing the drums soon after I saw The Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show on a black and white TV in 1965.
I haven't stopped playing the drums since then. It's in my blood. I still love it.
I now play with Saga, MY WICKED TWIN, clone bands and weekend bands to stay busy. Go to www.sagaontour.ca to see the full history of the band, pictures, music and join the forum.
I like drums, drumming, music, fast cars, racing, home renos and learning.

hey Brian! how have you been? thought I would stop by to say hello 'cause I hadn't been on MySpace in a long time. Take care and hope you are having a nice week with your family,
Thank you for the little drumming lesson in front of the Rosenhof. I tried it at home, but I think I'm still doing it wrong and that's because I didn't took enough attention of what you were telling me. I was totally overwhelmed.
The gig in Osnabrück was really great and from places all through the venue I saw and felt the enthousiasm of the audience. I heard the gig yesterday was even better and it's really beyond my imagination, because the Osnabrück concert was the best of all concerts we have seen in the past 4 - 5 years.
