Best
Gig:
1975
reunion at the Dowell house midway between
the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean in Panama.
Got out of the army summer of 74, went to
Fort Lauderdale to regain balance and go
to college. Decided to go back to the
Canal Zone that December and for the fun
of it teamed up with Jimmy (Lead) and Eric
(Bass) to play as the drummer at one of
the best parties in the mountains ever to
this day. Had Fender amps all over the
place and one massive set of Ludwigs to
play on. We practice for one day.... it
all came back... and we rocked like never
before or since.

Comments:
To this day I wish
I could find all my old buddies and play again but
they are all hiding.
I'm still in shape guys if you ever want to get a
band together again. Drums are the same ones I had
in the 60's. Sold my 62 Fender Jag for office
equipment back in 78, and still dressing in my
Magnum PI shorts, shirts and deckie shoes..... Life
is short...... Live it well.
