Is Mark currently building drums In Houston? I worked for him in 96/97 in San Antonio…. Lost contact over the years, sure would like to refurb some drums I have.

Mark's still in Houston, though I don't know if he works on drums anymore. I only get to talk to him a few times a year.

I am still unable to DM on this site; can you DM me and I’ll respond with my contact info, maybe you could pass off to Mark if you happen hear from him? I’d greatly appreciate it.

Be nice to talk to him again, even if he’s not building. Lots to catch up on.
