So we thought the gig was off till his manager calls us and tells us his younger brother would be filling in . We didn't rehearse with him because there was no time and he said he didn't need any . At the show the guy was AWFUL ! All the songs were in the wrong keys for him ! But ...and here's where it gets fun..halfway through the show his brother Billy walks in dressed in his Elvis attire ! His mom had bailed him out . And he starts yelling at his brother accusing him of trying to steal his act ! Next thing you know they are both fist fighting on the dance floor !! Both dressed as Elvis ! WHAT A SHOW !! The people were treated to fighting Elvi that night and everyone thought it was a hoot , got more than their money's worth .
I will never forget that .
If you're gonna fight dressed as Elvis, you gotta know Judo.

Play the SONG......not the DRUMS!!!
"I think that feeling is a lot more important than technique. It's all very well doing a triple paradiddle - but who's going to know you've done it? If you play technically you sound like everybody else. It's being original that counts." ~ John Bonham
