Roadie's Blog
I am Bob, Betty Lynn's partner and Roadie. When she holds a drumming workshop, I do the driving, set up the drums, make sure the PowerPoint is working, and then sort of disappear. As a hobby, I have taken to "antiquing" in the vicinity, looking for figurines and other pieces depicting frame drummers. Sometimes I am lucky, many times I am not, but as time passes our collection slowly grows. This blog, in the coming weeks, will share some of our finds with you. Perhaps you will share some of yours with us.
I apologize for having left this roadie's blog for a few months, but the acquisition of two new puppies in October completely distracted me for a while. Now I intend to get back to it again and continue this blog for all those who may be interested in how the frame drum is depicted in art.
As a beginning, I have updated my piece on Transferware (July 20, 2013) to mention another charger with a transfer painted in the same style as the centrepiece which is featured in that posting.
