Hey Mike, I see you found my old home. :-) It's a fun place to hang
out, and I wander in here every once in a while, but about 5 years ago
it started moving so dang fast I stopped trying to keep up. That and a
major infestation of trolls. Looks like most of the same crowd is still
here though; glad to see it.

Crazy thing is, we had a decent cymbal discussion going in another thread.

I lurked and posted here, a while back.
Thought I'd come back since our other place is about 2 blips from
flat-lining.

I saw the cymbal discussion - pretty cool. :-) Maybe some of the local
drummer galoots would enjoy moonlighting over at rmmp; some new faces
might help bring the old timers out of their rut.

I'm so far down in my rut it's turned into a cool groove. I was big on rmmp
about 15 years ago but hardly glanced at it this millennium.

I need to get over to the Dolbear site as well. Lot of friends there (some
quite local) but I found I was spending about 3 hours a day on the *
thing, so I took a long holiday to break the addiction.

That an' the weightlifting group.. an'
alt.fetish.catholic.schoolgirls.snorkels.custard............

Oops.. maybe too much information.
