Pancakes O'Malley rocking out to Bob Dylan's 'Isis'
Drummer Brett Vallone is a Rocker. He's also a nice guy, so nary a peep as he plays along with whatever blues, shuffle, folk, country, jazz or reggae beat that emanates from Studio 12. Once in a while, though, he puts his feet down (hi hat & bass) and leads us into the promised land of Rock n' Roll!
Check the comments section below for this week's Rock n' Roll birthdays.
