Joe plays golf with Spalding "Executive" Irons and Woods, "Dunlop 65", Golf Balls (courtesy of Shell Garages, Ireland); and Soccer with anyone who'll get out of bed.
Finally, we would like to thank everybody at Hoshino Industries (Tama Drums and Ibanez Guitars) for their help and support over the past couple of years. Who knows, Joe, maybe that Bass Drum will make it on stage, yet!!
