The second floor tom was built by Al Blaemire!Was the FT a fiberglass shell?Did you meet Mr. Blaemire?SA
Yes... the FT was a fiberglass shell! I visited with Al on a few occasions at his house in Eagle Rock, CA. Spun the shells in his little garage! Mr. Blaemire was just a wonderful gentleman and it's great to see that his legacy is being carried on!
[QUOTE=Gvdadrummasum;213576]my goodness that kit is gorgeous!!!!QUOTE]Amen to that. That massive amp, though? You guys playing some Hendrix for the folks (w/accordian accompanient?) :)
No Hendrix, but we did do one Deep Purple song... Smoke on the Water! Hey no laughing! Laughing H Actually sounded great! And, let's be honest, what drummer doesn't love playing that hi hat part?!!

Great old photo! Love the Roll & Tuck Custom amp in the background. Back in the 70's I used to sit in-between two of those monsters during gigs. It's no wonder I can't hear $hit these days! Love that old kit...
