You live in Sara ?  I live in Venice.  Are you playing somewhere now ?
I used to play here more; am currently getting my chops back -- bone.

       Evan Christopher, John Allred, Jon-Erik Kelso, Johnnie Varro, and =
I believe Ron Mueller played here in Sarasota and they used the local dru=
mmer, Mike Moran. I had never heard Evan play before and was greatly impr=
essed by his having a voice of his own, though he obviously could compete=
 with anyone for a classical tone. Also he played his---off. What was rea=
lly nice about the concert is that Mike Moran, a local drummer who had a =
bad stroke about nine years ago played with them. The Docs had told Mike =
that he would never play again. Mike started out just hitting alternate s=
ticks--one, two, three, four, and continued that for about three years. H=
e made his way back to playing great. He is a time keeper, listener, type=
 of player, very unobtrusive but driving. It made me very happy to see hi=
m have the chance to play with these guys. =20
       More than you were asking about but just a chance for me to tell a=
bout Mike. chuck =20
