This one's really special....

Drop Zone got it's start three years ago with a different line up by playing a little 25-seat bar in our home town of Palmyra called the Dogwood Cafe. Adam had a different bassist and I wasn't yet the drummer. I was there, and I remember thinking that the guitarist was good, but they needed me in the rhythm section (I'm an arrogant bastard)....

Problem was, the bar was too small. Oh, they fit 60 people squeezed in like sardines in there, but it was too loud, and the patrons couldn't sit. The bar soon after ceased booking bands and Drop Zone (now with me as a member) looked elsewhere to get shows....

Fast-forward to May 2009. Drop Zone is now Adam, Frank and Drew and we've played all over Virginia. The Dogwood took over a karate academy in an adjacent suite and is now over three time its original size, with seating for 85 and a capacity of (I guess) 150!!!!

So we're coming full circle- back to where we started it all in 2005. This should be good!  The band is much better than back then, and much more popular. We think we're going to pack house again, and we hope you'll be one of the throng... it's gonna ROCK!!!!

CYA there~
