Denbeigh High School in Newport News, VA class of '82. Said he used to do gymnastics and played in the band and that they had a bunch of classes together.
What makes it even more of a coincidence, is that Im meeting him tomorrow at a clinic |

My mom wants me to ask him if he remembers the "Weber twins (her maiden name)." My mom and her twin sister both went to school with him so I have a feeling he will remember who they are. Should be interesting. I cant believe I didnt learn about this until today |

My fifth grade teacher's husband was also a friend of his in high school, he and she should both be there tonight. Really cool to have such "celebrities" to have grown up so nearby. |

No pictures, but wow, what a momentous event. If you ever get the chance, do not pass up seeing them. They are an amazing pair of people, and musicians.
I got my BONGO signed, even had Anthony give me a bass clef on my favorite pick, and we traded some stories. It bears repeating: they are wonderful people.
For those TBers who were there but didn't know me, I was about 5 rows from the stage, and I was the guy in blue/glasses who asked about visualizing a desired technique to learn. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
