Stevo and Imani are ones I know - If the musicians on here had time - please post an interview - 10x questions? Stevo to Imani and then turn it around? I'd like to hear about your bands and future plans and of course Specials influence

That's Fester, DRD67 and Stevo - drums and Imani was on piano but I bet he plays other instruments too. Stevo did say once he started on piano.
Why are your drums in the shed DRD67? - is IT Dan's shed
I knew you would have some interesting band names in your past
Do they have an open mike night at TTC? _________________ marigold

That track has a kind of early Dexys influence
Excellent
Got a real Dexy's vibe going on there, and its not just the Horns and Organ.
Nice one, musicians, playing Music!!! _________________ Forget what Huey Lewis told you, its NEVER Hip to be Square.

Where were you before.
Hey.. I lived in Oz for six years, the picture was taken in our spare room over there.. I kept the Roland pads, but gave away the Ludwig kit to the local school as we needed the room in our container when we moved back over ... I've a DW kit now with two of the pads (ala Brad) I've also kept the V-Drum snare which has a trigger on it that gives me a nice rimshot effect, again like Brads' set up.. I'll get a picky up
Old drummer here. Work at a music venue so we all get together to play now and then.
I gave my kit (black rat) to my kid, she then went on to be a lot better then me!!!!!!!!!!!!.
Mind you she was in a band and I sang a Johny Cash song with them. Very proud Dad I can tell you _________________ Better must come one day,better must come

Circular bandstands give amateur cameramen hithereto previously unavailable access:
Silverton Hutchison on Saxophone there, though you'll have to take my word for it as you can barely hear him let alone see him. The nod & a wink I give halfway through there is at a rather beautiful lady walking past. As soon as she smiled at me I realized I just tried to flirt with one Ms P Black........... _________________ Kifaru; Roots, Rockers, Reggae.
