    Default Looking for PA Unit ( or close to PA) interest in drumming

    I am a life long drummer and have a lot of experience with drum corps style rudimental drumming and civil war history in general. I have always thought of getting involved in reenacting. I attended for the first time the Remembrance Day in Gettysburg and although I have done many parades in my day I have gotten the bug to play a civil war drum.

    I am beginning the process of familiarizing myself with the different drum cadences and would like to ply my trade with a decent group of other musicians.

    So - I am looking to see who I might be able get involved with. I live in Central PA area but can travel. Let me know if anyone has need for a drummer.

    'morning,

    Try the Logan Guard (http://46thparegband.50webs.com/) also. Good folks, a good band (although their Principle Musician unfortunately recently passed away) and they're also central PA (Altoona). They'll be at Baker Mansion in Altoona the last weekend of the month for a local event.
