Nice collection, CH. I'm listening to "Pride and Joy" right now. Ever get any gigs outside of your area? Cheers. Thanks Dis. We've just started to market ourselves...the summer of the Giants. We have just two gigs so far...but word will hopefully spread. We will travel to Kingston, no problem. If you have an event/fundraiser coming up....with a crowd that would enjoy classic rock....we would do it for expenses....and I'm not kidding. So, get us now while we're cheap..... ;D

Chartered helicopters, limos, personal hairdressers (for all that big hair) and blue M&Ms can really add up. ;D Make sure CH brings his "good" kit.

And I would've gotten away with it too....if it wasn't for that meddling cigarviper....... You know what, I can't even play those '75 Ludwigs any more....not after playing the Refs. The Luds are classics, lots of miles on them....but they don't hold a candle to the new Pearls. How's your drum-building coming along?

The Luds are classics, lots of miles on them....but they don't hold a candle to the new Pearls. How's your drum-building coming along? Right on guys. Just one more thing for the Kingston taxpayer, eh Here's what I might be able to do, CH. I know a radio personality here in town and he can direct me to the contacts who organize various events in Kingston. We used to have a "Battle of the Bands" competition that was pretty popular. I don't know if they still do that but there's something going on every weekend in Kingston throughout the summer. Until he passed away, Jeff Healey loved playing here and would show up every so often to do an inpromptu gig at whatever pub. George Thoroughgood was just here and he called Kingston, "the best-kept secret in the business. But, of course, George likes playing to smaller crowds (like Jeff used to). And it's not uncommon to see Dan Akaroyd showing up every so often either. He has a home out on Loborough Lake beside guys like Doug Gilmour, Kirk Muller, Wendle Clark and a plethora of other rich-and-occasionally-drunk-guys ;D As an aside, we have the Kingston Celtic Fest (or whatever it's called) every year, however it's not well advertised at all. They could start by renaming it the Kingston Highland Games, like everyone else. Anyway, they have a Highland dance competition, Celtic pottery makers and everythign else associated with other Highland Games. I'm contacting the organizers to introduce international-level tug of war to the area. This might extend the event to two days but from what I heard that's what they want to do anyway. Have to run. Work calling. Cheers.

Sup, guys. Have an album that's soon-to-be-released on online stores like iTunes, Amazon MP3, Rhapsody, etc. I'll keep you guys posted if interested. I even have some sheet music that I'm compiling together for you pianists out there.
Stay tuned.
