Wow,
I have been wanting to do a "search" on
Vance Masters as I saw him (and his
band)in the 60's in McCreary, Manitoba
and thought he was so so cute. Got him
to sign my arm in pen and then I took a
piece of tape and removed his name and
put the tape/ink in my scrapbook that of
which I still have. I never forgot him
or the band. Awesome website and story.
Too bad I wasn't in Wpg. for the reunion
concert. Would have been just wonderful.
Vance, you are as cute now as you were
then. Take care, God Bless and thanks
for bringing so much great music to
Manitoba and the world in general.
Hugs, Bonny:)

Love the website.
It's been a long time since I've seen my
good friends Vance and Brian Seller.
It's also been a long time since I met
Don McDougle. But the music these
guys wrote and played had such an impact
on the music we heard through the
decades and the music we hear now.
Good on ya guys.
Hope to see you when I'm in the Peg
Vance.
Take care.

Hey Vance, just came
across your website. It brought back
great memories. I remember watching you
many many years ago when I was a young
drummer (a bit younger than you) and I
was always impressed with your
impeccable timing and cleanliness (in
your style of play). All the best ...

Vance; I remember you
joining us at a table at the Westminster
Hotel between St Silver sets, and giving
us an impromptu lesson on your project
du jour: changing drum pitch while
performing by regulating the amount of
air via plastic tubing....I think the
lesson cost us a few draft, but the
memory is a lovely one, and very
affordable, at two bits a glass!!
Rock on!

Wow!! Thanks for the
history lesson. I saw Kurt and Bill play
at the Corral in Calgary with Burton,
Donnie and Gary.
I saw Vance play years ago in Winnipeg.
Vance and Gary were awsome players and
still are. God Bless. Cheers Mates

Hello Vance,
My Mother and I were just talking about
the Guess Who and what a pleasure it was
jamming in the basement with you many
moons ago.
My Father still tells me great stories
of the "real rock and roll era". I
have since kept all of the albums he has
passed on to me. I hope to pass these
timeless songs on to my son one day.
Long live the music .... Darren Kozak

Hi Vance, great web
page enjoyed the read, and a nice job by
Bev.
I'll be sure to check out the reunion on
the 14th. Should be a blast. It was good
seeing all the old (young) faces again.
Cheers.

Hi Vance,
You may not remember me, but I was one
of your proteges back in the 60's. I
used to follow you and The Crescendos
around and try to learn to play drums
with as much style and innovation as
you. No one played as creatively as you,
especially after your return from
England. You were also a very kind and
generous teacher which I discovered when
you invited me to your house in the
North End for lessons.
I'm still playing drums and teaching at
the age of 56 and can thank you for the
inspiration and continued devotion to
playing the best of instruments, the
drums.
Thanks for the memories,
Hilary

Hi Vance, I'm looking
forward to getting "The Brother cd." AS
far as I'm concerned Kurt Winter was The
Guess Who's best guitarist. Eric Clapton
was a fan! One of my most memorable
moments was meeting Donnie's Guess Who
in Montreal years ago. You guys were
super nice! Still my favorite band
today, "The Guess Who." We all
miss Kurt. His solos are still
awesome today. "Pain Train," "Hand
Me Down World" "Rain Dance.."
Vance please sign my cd.
Thanks and Merry Christmas to you and
the family.
