Day 5 - Oshawa, ON Long & McQuade
September 30, 2009
Hi Everyone!
We've been on the road a week now and all the Vault
Tour stops have been awesome! We've driven over 2000 miles and enjoyed some
great music along the way! The new Three Days Grace album with SABIAN endorser
Neil Sanderson ROCKS! Buy it!
At our most recent stop in Oshawa, the staff were
pumped and ready to sell some SABIAN cymbals and they did! We had a great day, although it was cold, everyone really enjoyed the variety of prototypes we had
on display and the demonstrations we were doing outside. Some friends dropped by
including Dan Todd of the classic rock band Fludd and golf pro Frank Corby of
the Royal Ashburn Golf Club - they both had to try hammering a cymbal. "It looks easy,
but it's not!"
Today we will be at Just Drums in Toronto and it
should be a busy day. We have many of our SABIAN endorsers dropping by and it's
your last chance to check-out the Canadian leg of the Vault Tour as it heads to
the U.S tomorrow. So get out to see us today!
