One of my favorite jokes concerning women and bands: A musician dies and goes to Heaven. St. Peter says, So…you’re a musician. Well we’ve got a pretty good band up here ourselves. Let me show you. The musician is ushered to a place where a wailing band is playing. He is flabbergasted. On guitar is J...

Thanks Duaine,

That outfit was lost to the ages a very long time ago. And the St Pauli girl? what instument? You don't even have to ask.. of course, the flute.

FANTASY AIRLIFT was based in Tyrone, PA and was active from 1979 til 1981. Sometime in the Spring of 1980, we played at "The Country Pub" in Patton. Bob Helbig (musician and entertainer extraordinaire, now with "The Boomers") recorded our performance live on a Teac 80-8 (8 Channe...

Now I know why the guys in the band nicknamed me "The Stick". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2XBALa0ehQ&NR=1&feature=fvwp JH John, Does that mean we can call you Moby "Dick"? Duaine, You can call me anything you would like, but only you. Actually I prefer my official mo...

Finally, religion eases our fear that life is finite and all-too-short. Humans are ego-driven, and few want to face the possibility that we will someday cease to exist. I embrace that idea, and don't see the need for Heavenly Reward for good deeds done now. I try to be a good person so I can enjoy ...

Steely Dan are one of my favorite artists of all time. True class!!

Almost forgot: I'll get the ball rolling. Our current introductory rate is between $400-$600, depending on travel. (although the rest of the band is ready to increase those rates a bit) We're new, and don't have much of a fan base yet, but that seems quite reasonable for a five-man operation, espec...

How about us??, the Flood City Brass??

Yeah, I used this also, and I really liked "Flood Brass Meat Of The Depressive Eternity" but I was shot down by the other twerps in the band. Go figure!!

If you really want to learn, get a practice pad and some sticks. Work on rudiments until you're sick of them. What Rob said... But I also believe that you need to have a burning passion to be a musician before you can become a good drummer. You need to desire to add your part to the group and becom...

I would try to practice along with a metronome. Set it at 120 and play with it for a day or so, then go to 160, and play along with it. Train yourself to have good internal timing. I honestly believe this is the most important thing a percussionist can have, over chops, over flair, over everything....

I was in high school from 1965-1970. Wow, what a time it was!! It was a sea change of music. And I still love the soft rock of the seventies (1970 - 1976) The Carpenters, Seals and Crofts, Air Supply, England Dan & John Ford Coley, Dionne Warwick, Burt Bacharach, I could go on..... Musically, I ...

Thanks guys..

I know that the Band really appreciates your remarks, especially from fellow musicians of your caliber.

Thanks once again.
