We listened to 8-tracks backin the early 70's..maybe this guy kept his as a vintage stereo? you can still find them at swapmeets

Mike Ness is great. Back in my high school days we played shows all over so cal as an opening band for those guys.

RR... Let's hear more about that!! Tell us about your band and what instrument you played. Drums get extra kudos from me!

[raising rednecks]

I've played drums for as long as I can remember.I started playing in bands in the 5th grade. That's pretty much all I did til my early twenties. Then that pay to play crap came out in hollywood and most of the bigger clubs. I refused to pay a club $1500 to play so they can sell $8 drinks to the people we bring in. Since then I dropped out and just play on my own or jam with friends once in a while.

That's awesome!! I'm an aspiring drum student... Just started learning about a year or so ago at the ripe old age of 36! I've always loved them and finally decided "what the heck" - and signed up for lessons. Would love any advice you have to offer. = ) Wish I could see you play. Playing since 5th grade... bet yer gooooooood. ; )

Mike Ness and band will be at the B.U.T December 16. He'll also be at the Coach House in SJC December 10 with James Intveld-attend this show at your own risk. I believe the two other shows on the sixth & ninth are sold out.

The BUT is Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach.

Sorry didn't see that someone else replied. It is a sweet venue. The acoustics aren't all that great. The Coach House is better in my opinion.

I was a HUUGE rockabilly fan. Hung with several bands. Dancing all night. Love to swing! I still have my ole 45's from the blasters and many more!

Were you into the Alley cats? The bass player from one of my bands was a huge fan of theirs. Whenever I quit their drummer filled the void. The bass player also had a few rockabilly bands but I don't know which ones. His name was Danny Phillips but he changed his last name when he went rockabilly.

[Kymery]

Love Rockabilly, used to hang with the Blasters a bit, as well as a few other great bands. I was the full Rockabilly chick, dressed the part, danced my arse off, swing, throw me in the air, under, around, down and OUT!! whoooo those were the days!
