Other comments: Not much else,,,, I'm just an old fart who's been into music since I was about 8 years old when I started buying Stones and Beatles albums. Seen a bunch of great concerts thru the years. Now I've got a wife & son (who's in his last year of college)and a mortgage payment. :-0 .... So I just work, listen, trade and hunt for music , practice some drums and work on tunes. And hopefully get the bills paid.. ;-)
