Hi. Thank you for finding me and your friend request! Great skills and chops! You've got some great music and videos on your page. Love it! Hey, we are wearing the same caps, I think! Good luck to your further career, but I don't think I have to worry about that. Have a nice weekend, Wilm.
Salut Eric... Thanx for the add! Je l'sais pas si tu t'en rappelle, mais tu mas donne des lessons de drums il y'a quelques annees. Very cool de te voire en forme et travailler.
Allo Éric!!! comment ça va!? ça fait un bail qu'on c'est parlé et comme je vois ça roule toujours aussi bien pour toi, tant mieux :)
Mais je voulais savoir si t'avais quelques adresses de local de pratique cool qu'on pourrait louer, sans équipement fournie on cherche pas un local déjà équipé mais plutôt un local chouette dans une bâtisse quelconque.
tk merci d'avance
Et on ira se prendre une bière un de ses quatre, je suis pas mal libre de ces temps si j'ai pas beaucoup d'école, mais tk quand ça t'adonne.
