Our Man Jeff

Jeff
Jeff was The Man. He could play just about anything, and play it better than anyone around. Jeff was the original engine of Amnesty Road, a triangle of The Trinity, and a whole lot of fun to play with, both in rehearsal and onstage. He’s not just a good drummer, as a certain three-year-old once remarked, he was a good guy to have around. Drummers wanted to be him: consummate taste on the kit, more experience than most drummers out there, and an amazing repertoire. Unfortunately, Jeff needed to find a band nearer to his homestead, and considering how far he lives from any of us, it’s completely understandable. He was great with us, and we were really great with him. He won’t believe any of this, either. That’s Jeff.
