My thread on this two weeks ago died without a reply, so I don't think anyone is too interested.

But as long as the room is paid for, let's talk about you.

Do I remember you saying you are a drummer? If so, are you in a band right now?

That's too bad you can't go. I wonder if it's just a two hour guitar solo anyway.

Yep...Good memory, NG.
I used to play, and be in a band...but I haven't in about 5 years. 3 kids and a job will do that to ya!

My twins want to learn, though...and their now 9...so I'm thinking of a big, honking, Yamaha double kick kit for their birthday...

...Of course, I'll have to play too...That's a cool part about having kids!

You can bet your bottom I'm going. Vai kicks so much ass. I also got his EVO premium tickets thru his website. Allows a portion of sound check to be attended and you meet the band.
