On the home front, in addition to being the featured drummer on major shows, “Bird” is a familiar and welcome performer at several venues, such as
Jo Jo’s Jerk Pit and Jacob’s Place.

Gates will open at 6.30 on Saturday, 22 October and showtime will at 8.00 p.m. sharp. Food and drink will be on sale. As always, complimentary parking and shuttle service will be available from the nearby Tyre Warehouse.
