Terryl Greene had more or less put away his drum kit for years when he suggested to Randy Clark that it might be fun to get together and play the songs they’d played together back in high school.

It was supposed to be just for fun, or at least it was in Greene’s mind.

That was 26 years ago and The Beaters, the result of that conversation, are still going strong, playing mostly parties and special events. They also performed at this year’s Riverbend Festival.

“That was fun,” Greene said. “We had a huge crowd, and they were into it.”

Q: Is it fair to say that most people would know you through The Beaters?
