Whole Lotta Drumming

10/16/2024

Hey folks! We will be rocking at Tabone Academy of Music in Hamilton this Friday & Saturday. 969 Upper Ottawa St #1.

Tix still available but going quickly. Go to link for tickets in comment below.

For those of you who have not been to this place before, it is a cozy, close and interactive vibe. Every seat is a great seat. For those of you who have seen us at this venue before, we are doing something we have never done before. We always do something for the first time when we perform here. Very special place. Thanks Dave Tabone for having us 3 years in row.

And we will have Steven Vian bringing his Production Service Industries-PSI gear and running the ship on Front of house sound and Ethan Snook as stage tech and support. It's gonna be a blast! See you all there!
