All this got me thinking about my days as a drummer with a local country band.
We played a placed in Dallas - sawdust floors and all where the crowd was pretty rough. The bouncers were three hugh guys and they were kept busy all night long. Our stage was actually behind a screen which blocked bottles and glasses but not what was in them. After one week I quite the gig - had to change every head on every drum - and clean cymbals and stands before I could use them again. Those were the days!!!
