Doug's Story

Life As I did 40 years ago, I am playing in a band doing 50's and 60"s music. I am starting to feel the grind however. I retired 17 years ago but being hyper I needed to do something. I took a course in criminal law did some supply teaching and then found Long and McQuade Musical Instruments. I never thought I could sell but it is easy when the product is something you believe in. I have recently lost a couple of close friends to the big "C" and I think it has changed my attitude to life. I'm certainly not as exciteable as I once was. I'm here now hoping all who read this will take the time to smell the roses as we only travel this road but once! When I have something more profound to add I shall return to this page. Meanwhile everybody live life to the max. I am now playing with two bands, The Original Replay Band (replayband.ca) and I am now singing as a guest vocalist withThe Majestics. . Both bands are terrific a...Expand for more
nd the musicians are superb. I am having a great time!!! Now April 2014 I am still with 2 bands but the Majestics have folded. I am now with Caesar and The Consuls, as well as Replay, plus I am doing a duo that visits Seniors' residences and plays 40's 50's music. Still working 4 days a week and trying to visit all my grandchildren, 2 in Toronto, 2 in Plymouth Michigan. What can I say? I'm still kicking and having a great time . I am no longer with Caesar but do guest shots with Ronnie and The Corvairs plus I am still with Replay and the duo as well. I hit the studio every year with Dave Konvalinka my guitar legend buddy and Brian Gagnon who is master of all instruments to do another CD. Well the next news is I just had a knee replacement and am now Titanium Man. Not sure how the airports will take it. It seems to have recovered well but I am still doing 1 1/2 hrs of Physio exercises every morning. Keep rockin'!!
