Hi Steve!
Yeah, I still play like "boom, crash, boom, crash"; helps with aggression. To answer your questiion re" the DRINK? I guess I had to stay sober while "boom, crashing". Our gigs were always into the "wee" hrs. of the a.m. & wherever I was playing, I still had to drive myself and another band member home. I really appreciated you guys coming to see me/the band & thought y'all were going to make fun of us. (did you?...can't remember) It was a fun night though.
