Happy 2026!!!
It’s been a Hell of a ride since 1975!!
What’s the plan going forward?? I wish I knew…
Judging from audience and band member responses over the last 6 months, I’m still drumming my ass off and with dynamics, taste, precision and, most important (to me anyway), passion.
Yes – the gear’s getting heavier because I’m admittedly getting older AND because I’m too stubborn to go to give up my preferred kit (at right)…
Next up – a reorganized packing scheme for better weight distribution…

And yes – there’s a potential band on the horizon that’s just what I’ve been looking for… stay tuned… 🙂
January 21… in non-music news, Julie had her first knee replacement a couple days ago… everything went very well and her recovery is much better than I had anticipated… she’s moving around in the house with just two canes but uses a walker when we venture out for PT and other appointments… first follow-up is tomorrow morning but I think she’s doing great!! 🙂
