Hey Dane!! Welcome to the group!

As I have said many times; in hindsight this group should have been
called Surf Musician 101. There aren't enough of us around anyway to
be so segragated by instrument.

This is quite apparent in the videos.

Well I am not a drummer, nor do I play one on TV, but I wouldn't
think any drummer would pass up a chance to play The Savage with
several ex-Shadows members! Is it a difficult song for a drummer? I
already know I would not want to be the rhythm guitar player.
