Hi Jim,

I am a drummer and vocalist and have played in local and road bands in 
and around the Western New York area and Eastern Seaboard of the US and 
Canada since the 1970's.  Now I'm only part time and I have done other 
things in recent years as well.

Being a drummer, it has been difficult for me to try sending CW on 
stage.  <guffaw>!
