It's been a long time since I hit the stage with these.. "unmiked and pure" .. Last night was my first with the Orbison Show.. The kick & tama snare combo truly pumped.. resulting in complements from the musos & several audience members alike..

Cheers

John

LJ - Both you and the drums look good up there on stage! Great photos, thanks for posting them.

Hey Johnno, how about a little clip over at You Tube? I'd love to hear you guys!

Keep in there wailing!

John

Too many great drums to list here!

Trivia..

Do you know when a Orbison song is going to end?

He goes for a very high note.....

Drums look cool BTW!

Purdie.. Will do a clip for sure.. But this was the first gig as a group & had much to think about, plus also was out of town without a decent support crew..

Cheers
