On the next tour, God willing...

I've enjoyed the extended jams the band is doing in their songs this tour, but what good rock concert doesn't have a drum solo? I know those are usually met with people heading off to get a beer, but if they'd have Deen do a short one in the middle of a song, 30 - 45 seconds, I think it would be killer. They could keep the extended jams in and do both where the song permits. Would rock the show up a bit more.

Actually, I kinda like what Perry did on his solo tour--have a short drum solo to open the show ending with this driving beat. Fade to black, then start first song.

I do remember Deen soing a drum solo when Soto sang with the band in Grand Rapids, Mi., within a song that is.

Hey Whirlwind, are you in Grand Rapids? Why not come out to The Intersection tonight?

I was just going to complain that the tribute bands never came to the midwest. What time?

I'll be sure to look for a review at any rate.

Spent the last hour trying to make connections but no go. Too many irons in the fire already. It's a great place and I know you'll be well received.
Have a great night tonight.

Sorry you can't make it - Hope to see you next time!

In the meantime, should get a bit of video/audio tonight as well.

Be looking forward to the video. If you sing DSB, dedicate it to me as I am desperately in need of believing at persent. Everyone else is getting a rub from the song so why not me, lol.

I seem to recall Deen doing plenty of short drum solos at the end of alot of tunes. Granted, there hasn't been a showcase just for Deen, but he does quite a few extended rolls, fills, quads, etc, etc, at the end of several tunes.
