So it's been a while since I last posted but time is short so i'm just checking and gonna make this short... Finally got my 'Poh-Bop' from Seth a few weeks ago... man am I in love... I think these are going to be the last set of drums I'll play for the rest of my life... It's since been in a session setting, recording session and currently in a community chorus thing... Man I love this thing... Here's a video of our last session at the Bistro in Hayward. Sorry bout compressed audio quality, but oh well... :)
