I hope you'll forgive me for jumping the gun slightly, as it's ALMOST 9th February Down Under!!!!

Brian, may I be the first to wish you a very happy 70th birthday. You have been an inspiration to me for over 30 years and I have no doubt that you have been inspiring many others for even longer. The amazing thing is, you are actually playing better now than ever!!! How do you do it?

Anyway, many happy returns and I am sure that our antipodean friends will ensure that you will have a birthday to remember!!!!

Happy 70th. You are, and always will be, the Guv'nor.

Chris. :clap:

Happy birthday Brian, and well deserved too, I only hope that I can still play, let alone go half way round the world and do a tour, when I reach 70.

Many congratulations and keep the beat.

Best wishes

Ron

Chris if you are the first, let me be the second to wish Mr Bennett (senior) a very Happy Birthday. (I'm now the third)

BB was certainly an inspiration to me when I was learning to play the drums and he still is. Everything is played with what looks like such ease and professionalism .

I can’t see Brian Bennett looking at this site but we know that Warren does so please pass all our best wishes to your Dad who will always be, as Cliff said, in our minds one of the Young Ones and a fantastic drummer.

Dear Brian

I wish you a very Happy 70th Birthday. I'm sitting and watch the Reunion DVD, and it's wonderful to see how you all are enjoying playing.
I wish you all the best for the rest of the tour.

Best regards

A very Happy Birthday to you Brian.
70 years of great music - may there be many more.
I'm sure this will be a memorable milestone for you. It certainly will be for all Shadows fans.
Just three weeks to the NZ leg of the Reunion Tour - we're counting down.
