Tribute
|
|
A tribute from Mike Scott of The
Waterboys :
"Geoff
is
a wonderful drummer - musical, versatile, powerful, solid as a mountain,
absolutely professional and prepared. Yet all the many times I've worked
with him I've found he comes with extras thrown in - he's a superb
motivator, always driving the band onto greater heights onstage, or
lifting tour-weary spirits up offstage. And best of all there is a
factor "x" which I can best describe by saying : he
brings his heart to the party too."
