MY ABE!!!![:D]

Isn't he amazing?
He has such a positive attitude.
People with good families are like that so naturally.
I always have a struggle with it.
I so admire that attitude.
Was he born in like 1971, 72?
So he is the baby in the band. I heard Rust and Brian are in their 40s.
I love watching him play and also the little interviews with him in the DVD are so fine. I have a crush on him.[:I]

Abe is about 30 born at or around 1971. That article was suberb - the guy's got a great attitude and something that is a rare commodity these days - reverence for his elders. Paul made a point of complimenting Abe's parents.

I couldn't figure out (not that it matters) Abe's nationality - I think he's part African-American and part Jewish. He is an outstanding drummer - he made a point of dissing Shakira in the article cause she stinks as a producer.

Rusty and Brian in their 40's?? If true, they don't look it. I thought Rusty and Brian were around early 30's....I know Wix is about 45 or so....

Sadly, I doubt these guys (cause they are so good) will be available again - I mean the odds of them staying together with all their talents is rare. Appreciate them as perhaps Paul's strongest unit since Wings Over America

yes, they are very talented guys, but they have been playing for a long time and they are not getting any younger. I think they will stay with paul for a while. They are getting a lot of recognition from this tour and I think they reallize that this is a once in a lifetime experience. Not to mention that they seem to having a great time. I agree with you about them being the best band since wings over america, but it's a rough business and I don't see them doing anything except for studio work post paul. Then again I could be wrong, You never know.

Good points, Scrod. I agree with both of you.

Rusty is 44. He graduated in 1976. Those of us who knew him then, when he played with Eulogy and then with the Living Daylights, are just sick that we all aged and he didn't at all!
