I could play drums for Dokken

Post by Chip Z'Hoy »

I'm not a great drummer by any stretch but I think if "Wild" B.J. Zombo got sick and Don Dokken said "Are there any drummers in the house?" I could answer the call of duty.

Any bands you could help out in a pinch?

I could play guitar or bass for 95% of bands. Sing for 40%, do harmony vocals for 100%. Play pedal steel or keyboards for 25%.

Not a great drummer myself, but give me a 4/4 or 2/4 beat band any day of the week and I would have fun.

Always thought I could do a great job with Drive By Truckers.

Everyone thinks they can be Jim Darby
Nobody will ever call you-ever


So much daydreaming it’s hysterical-bunch of never will be people- clearly zero talent to be a pro like Darby

I could play drums for a few bands, but most fun would be a set of 70's Status Quo.

You should challenge DeGrasso to a drum off.

I could take over for Donnie in New Kids on the Block, you know, he's the rebel.

From the crowd I could jump in on guitar for KISS, AC/DC, Uncle Ted or Sabbath and not make an obvious mistake. Bass as well. I could not replace Glenn or KK but could jump in on second guitar for currebnt Judas Priest as well.

I'm fine doing back ups for most.

And fought them in vain

back on them
And left them in pain

I could sit on a stool for Jack Russell's Great White without mumbling, falling off, acting incoherent, and stay in key.

I'm not in the same stratosphere as Mike Campbell or George Harrison but I could play lead for probably 75% of T.P.s set and 95% of the Beatles set. (I could 'wedding band' the songs I can't play note for note)
