Sonor spotting... 'Til Tuesday

Post by tcbetka »

Circa 1987, some Sonor Phonics on this live gig? Looks like it to me. I played this song live when it was just out on the radio. My band learned it in the fall of 1987. Yes boys and girls, that's how old I am!

That badge was used until 1980ish. Meaning that was not a brand new DRUMSET for that drummer. I wonder if it was a rental or what. I remember them on Solid Gold. Wonder if I can find that and see what he was using.

For the life of me, I can't understand why she wasn't on my radar during adolescence.
