Did you know I lived next door to Rob Tyner in Birmingham in1972? Its funny cause my house is in the documentary.He liked my drumming and he knew I grew up playing in Detroit cause he said I used a lot of cymbal work like on the motown stuff.I used ta help him work on his car in his driveway and he would give me tips on playing.Pretty cool guy!!Retro Kimmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09639596929861136401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856333241837525662.post-71363576871031045842008-11-09T18:31:00.000-05:002008-11-09T18:31:00.000-05:00Thanks Bill!
