Sorry, please bear with me while I agree with Ivan one more time. I
was very impressed right away with his drum work on Head Shrinkin'
Fun, and I know jack about drummers. He really propels those songs
along, giving them an "off the rails" feel that's just perfect for
what they are doing.
I don't know if I'm supposed to say this or not, but a very kind list
member showed me a video clip of Dave playing with The Ghastly Ones
during their recent show. HE WAS AWESOME. And Norman C. is no slouch
either. He played drums during their cover of a Sonic's tune. Anyway,
I didn't want to lord that over everyone, just trying to grease the
wheels so we can see the official announcement. (Hint - check the
Ghastly One's site, but it's not there yet)
Now excuse me while I wipe my nose...I may have something on it.
