well time flies for sure, i want to thank every one here for the comrade, knowledge, appreciation for the art of vintage drumming and vintage drummers and to the warmth ive received from the vdf members this year, here it is a special place for old geezers like me to hang out and discuss, and show the drums we grew up with and their restorations, i must say since the acquiring of my first kit i lost as a teen i have formed a genuine appreciation for vintage drums and the people who play and built them we have lost some greats this year and i will remember them by my collection and when i play the them, as a kid they inspired me to what i am today, i'm no one famous, but family man and a drum guy just the same way i came in this world and this will be the way i go out . Again i cant say enough about the vdf so enough of the soap box .
Thanks again gary
merry xmas to all
and to all a good playing drum
i just love the drummer boy this time of year he says it best, for the Christ Child is truly born......
