Giffo said to tell you that he would have loved to play the Stick more but it really wasn't the right drum feel for it in the Oil's.
As for the recording he used it on Who can stand in the way and Sleep but thats all.

Hope this helps

Cheers Jon

Wonderful! I would love to get in touch with Giffo. One thing I'd really
like to know is if he used the 'Stick' on any of the Oils' studio
recordings. I just love to see him playing it on 'Sleep' at Oils on the
Water. Maybe you can pass that question on to him for me, Jon?

Cheers,

Stephan

Hello All

Pete gave me this kit when i was around 12 to practice on, about a
year later he came and got it for the P&P video clip.
After that i didn't see it again....

He told me they had used it for a bit of recording and some gig's
around Byron and after that he gave it to his Guitarist who had 9 kids
for them to practice on. That was 1993!!!

Last week i ran into the youngest son Jera and asked him what ever
happened to the old Gracy ?

He said it was sitting in the back of his Dad's shed in Suffolk Park
and if i wanted it to go get it.......So i did.

She is a little worse for wear and is weathered but she still has
life left in her!!

Anyway i thought you powder-workers would enjoy seeing this old kit....

Cheers Jon
