Good Luck dude. Watch out for those crazy cops though. I've seen Reno 911.

Rob, I can't believe it.........I won't believe it. In my mind I always thought you should be drumming for a living, but I never thought you'd actually leave and do it! It's definitely a good thing, but you will most certainly be missed. I would love to get friends, family, and Rockpagers (which are kinda both) together to see you off and have a big "Rob goes West" party/roast.

Do you know any other details like who exactly you're gonna be playing with, what you will be playing, or when you will be leaving?

Thanks for giving me the chance to be on the same stage with you and for showing central PA some of the best chops they'll ever see. It was, is, and always will be an honor.

Congratulations on your early semi-retirement!

(thats what Vegas is for--big bucks with no touring--what a cushy gig)

Do you get to jam with all those big names?

Good luck, Rob, and watch out for the white tigers, they can turn on you quick.

Damn, Bobby, I just scrolled past the picture you posted, while sitting in the airport in Munich. Glad nobody was looking over my shoulder! :shock:
... and then the wheel fell off.

Thanks everyone! I'm definitely gonna need the luck part of it. Got the U-Haul reserved. I might be leaving as soon as Tuesday. My first shows are March 30-April 2 at Lake Tahoe Baby! So I need to hurry my ass and get out there!

Cost of U-Haul to Reno from Altoona: over $2000..... :x

Cost of gas: Probably a lot.... :x

Playing casinos for a living: well, you figure it out...this ain't no damn commercial! :D

I'm glad to say I know all of you, even though I've been a dick to a certain percentage...and all this political stuff? Well, I had to ruffle some feathers before I left, but hey...internet is everywhere! So, I'll still be around! Just not physically...or mentally for that matter! (driving across the country by yourself does take some certain measure of insanity, but hey, me and my shit aren't getting there any other way!)

Thanks again! I love you all! Thanks for the support!

We actually took it very very easy on him. Didn't even make him drink the Rocket Fuel.
The person below me enjoys a good spanking.
