Veteran drummer Eric Stutt has announced his retirement (via F/b) as a drummer. At 81 he feels the time is right. Thanks for everything you've added to the local scene Eric, one of the best! However, until I see "Gretsch Drum Kit for sale (cymbals extra)" on eBay I won't believe it!

So sad, going to miss your impeccable swinging beats and the way you interact with soloists, Eric. But if you feel it's right to retire now, then it must be, because you're an expert in timing! X
