I think Barney Clark is the guy who had the operation. The way I see it our band has been going strong for 16 years with the nucleus, Bass Player, Guitar Player, Fiddle, Guitar, and Mandocaster being together for 13 years, we have had a blast and continue to respect and love each other, if we could only find a damn drummer who dont want to be out front singin, we'd be okay. My Dad always told me if you have a good drummer he will be missing other qualities like, common sense, adulthood etc, but if you find a great guy who you can get along with he usually cant play worth a crap, anyway so the bulk of the band has been together 13 years and we are on our 8th or 9th drummer, I lost count, but believe it or not one of the nicest drummers we have had and also a pretty good drummer is Mark Horn and he now plays for the Derailers, so not all good drummers are bad.

My philosophy has been to try to find kind people who dont have a hidden agenda first and then motivate them to play well.
