...silas and i live in vancouver bc, canada. i'm pretty heavily into old aircooled vws but i've also been involved with music for over 20 years (drummer). the first band i played in was a 3 piece with guitar, drums & french horn/keys!!
i played in concert, jazz, and dixie-land bands in junior high & high school and then started a rock band fresh out of high school. we recorded a couple cds & toured western canada a couple times, played in some divey vancouver clubs and then broke up after 6 years together. started another rock/pop band, recorded another cd, played the club scene in vancouver and then that band broke up. joined a punk band, recorded another cd, slayed the ugliest stages in vancouver, and then we broke up. i shelved the drums & the music for the last 6 years so i could focus on a career change (automotive industry), but i have recently wanted to get back into playing a little here & there. i have also dusted the cobwebs off my vintage rogers drum kit (i've owned it for 20 years) and will be posting pics and asking alot of questions about it and it's history. it's pretty beat up, but it's one of those sets that i cherish greatly and wouldnt mind fixing up.
i'm very happy to have found this forum. after browsing the threads and reading some info, it seems as though there alot of very knowledgeable people here. i may not be able to contribute to the tech sections as much as i'd like, but i'll throw in a "good game" wherever i can!!!
:)
cheers
