You're never too old to pick up the beat, so to speak. And as a keyboard man early on, you were actually working with a percussion instrument (the piano) before you...
Yeah, Joe, I've played some of the new CPs and they don't sound as good as the older models. Could be the skins, could be the shells feel lighter than mine--and the newer LP Aspires almost feel too...

:ok: Glad to see another hand-drummin' brother in...
