I contemplated letting you agree on a choice of topics to be a little different but figured it would be more fun (for me anyway) to keep you guessing. And everyone knows that I entertain myself and just let others along for the ride.
So for this narration, my lesser known quantity...music.
1. I was offered a four year full ride scholarship at The University of Tennessee from the band director.
2. I played with Lee Greenwood.
3. I auditioned as the new drummer for .38 Special.
Short and sweet without a large story to distract.
I guess I go first!
@Snarl LOSE??? NEVER!
Well maybe.
Claim #1. What was the band director's name?
@"Ahabstar" is going for the sweep. He benefits if we BOTH lose.
Claim #3. How did this audition with .38 Special come about?
1992 Don Barnes rejoined and wanted to get back out touring and back into the studio. Just so happened that he was in a bar in the Riverside area of Jacksonville (because there are no bars in Ortega). Woody, who was a classmate was spotted and approached. Woody mentioned that I played skins after being asked if he still blew harp. Scott Meeder was already out. It ended up going to Scott Hoffman despite my knowing Bob Burns and speaking with him regularly the past couple of years.
