In 1965 at the New Plymouth Royal Hotel, Viv Prince the then drummer for the Pretty Things, told me what I would need to be a drummer. I was 17 then. I sat on what he said for nigh on 40 years. I became a drummer in 2000
(in a Highland Pipe Band) using his suggestions which have been the mainstay of my drumming.

I wish I could have been there to see them but economics ruled out such a visit and all the best.

Thanks too, Liz.
