I found this interesting. I last saw steel drums live in Scottsdale at one of those phony corporate "small town" venues made to look like an old fashioned downtown section of a real town. Of course, everything around that area is super expensive. My car was the oldest one parked in the lot among all the new super cars. I talked to the steel drum guy and his gig is actually regular where he was stationed near a stairwell going up to a posh restaurant. I don't think I could stand more than a half hour of straight steel drums, myself, but Dorothy and me found it interesting to stand and watch for awhile. The following video is a short film on how steel drums are made-- quite interesting.
Rick and Dorothy partnered personally and professionally from 1995 to 2025. Their unique duet featured one of them on 88-key piano while the other managed the bass, percussion, lead solo instruments on a portable keyboard ensemble. Vocals and singalongs were often part of the show. Dorothy transitioned to the quantum-spiritual-realm QSR in January 2025 and she lives on electronically here and via quantum synchronicity winks to Rick from the beyond Email: rick_potvin@yahoo.com
