Interesting tidbit; The drummer for first edition was one of the construction workers that regularly stopped into the Tool Time set on Home improvement. In fact, when they started the band, he was the drummer playing paint buckets and such.

THIS GUY:

"This guy" is Mickey Jones, who not only was a prominent drummer -- who also played behind such artists as Bob Dylan, Johnny Rivers and Trini Lopez -- but who also appeared in hundreds of movies and TV commercials.
