EricP... I can't find an auction or sale where a Luxor was actually sold for $450.

BTW I got a chance to visit Revival Drums out there in the Rose City... I hope that shop is still open. Great shop!!Cool1 Portland.. great city.

That is crazy money for a Luxor UNLESS you went to Revival where they really charge a lot!

:D

I bought one of Jose Medeles's personal cymbals a while back, cheapo MIJ 22'' and it's really unique, not what you would expect from a vintage MIJ cymbal!

Born and raised and it's really turning into a pile of crap lately as everyone wants to live here it seems :)

I went to Lewis and Clark College for a bit and worked in the Mt. Hood National Forest while living up in Parkdale. Moved back east in 1981 when Reagan got elected and cut a bunch of our jobs. :(

Got back out to Portland for the MLS All Star game two years ago. It had changed a lot but still felt like a great city.

Totally lucked in to finding Jose's shop... what a great vibe in that shop! I think I met Jose... down stairs.

Ah, ah, ah, no politics.flower

Jose is a great guy. I have known him since he was a kid. He grew up not far from me...
