LIGHTS OUT-SURVIVING THE 70'S WITH UFO-BY MARTIN POPOFF-ANDY PARKER-BEIER 1.5 STEEL--6.5 X 14-SAM LUMSDEN

I received a really nice message yesterday from Scotland based drumming virtuoso....Sam Lumsden of First Class Drums. 

Martin Popoff released Lights Out-Surviving The 70's With UFO in 2017, and I was unaware of this. Sam spotted some more recent images in the book, and I was thrilled to learn it included one with Andy with his 1.5 Steel--6.5 x 14.

Andy was one of the first artists to take that drum on the road, and it was also one of the first I manufactured here. The 1.5 Steel--6.5 x 14 has been his main for his US rig for almost 10 years, the 1.5 Steel--5.5,x 14 has been his main for the same amount of time on his European rig. He also used a 1.5 Steel--6.5 x 15 on the road, and currently uses his 1.5 Steel--8 x 14 as a main as well in both Europe, and the US.

I recently as well saw UFO for two nights in Chicago, and the shows were met with rave reviews, as all of them have. I am hoping, as all of their fans across the world are....That UFO will continue to schedule more dates on their 50th Anniversary-Last Orders Tour. 

Thanks You for everything Andy...and Thank You Sam Lumsden!
