Apple Studios in Tampa

While in Tampa last weekend for my niece's wedding, I had a chance to get together with a very dear friend George Valaes, for an evening of jamming.

George and I played in a three piece band together back when we were 17. He and I even relocated from Tampa to Pittsburgh in hopes of finding success in New York when we were 19. You can find old photos of him in the photo section(and in the collage in "Unstoppable"). You will notice in the photo that he is holding his 1974 Travis Bean bass (same one we used back in the day).

After over four hours of fun, we resurrected some of our old tunes in hopes of tracking them for a future release.

George brought along another old friend Mike Cusumano, to sit in on the drums. According to Mike, we just missed Cheap Trick who use the same rehearsal studio.
