HOW COME I GET CONTACTED BY SO MANY DRUMMERS AND BASS PLAYERS? THE MUSICIANS I KNOW I COULD COUNT ON ONE HAND. WAYNE , THE FORMER "FLAKE" DRUMMER,CALLED ME LAST NIGHT. I HAVEN'T SPOKEN TO, OR SEEN HIM FOR 35 YEARS. HE HAS BEEN GETTING ROB ASKEW (BASS) TO HELP HIM WRITE A REVISED HISTORY OF THE BAND. IT'S A FAIRLY COMPLICATED TASK TO GET THE CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER RIGHT, AFTER ALL, IT SEEMS MOST MUSICIANS IN OZ PLAYED IN THE GROUP AT SOMETIME.ROB AND HIS BROTHER, LINDSAY, WERE ALSO IN THE BAND. MARTIN ERDMAN, THE RECORD PRODUCER, IS RE-RELEASING THE FLAKE ALBUM THIS YEAR, AND IS GOING TO INCLUDE A 12 PAGE BOOK OUTLINING THE HISTORY OF THE GROUP. THE WRITING MUST BE VERY SMALL! I HAVE ASKED WAYNE TO SEND ME SOME PICS FROM THE TIME AND I WILL INCLUDE THEM IN MUSINGS AT A LATER DATE. I HAVE NO PICS FROM THAT TIME, WHICH IS A SHAME, BUT THIS APPARENTLY IS A RECENT PIC OF WAYNE.
