“Between 1970 and 1971 I was a lead snare drum player of the Appleknockers and I was seven and a half years old. At the time I was the youngest snare drum player in their history, but Danny Fitzgerald eventually moved to me to bass drum because I accidentally put a hole in the bottom of my snare drum. I left the band after that, but I had great experiences at both the old Geneva Community Center and the Armory right down the street. A girl named Melanie was our instructor.”
