I just stumbled upon this forum earlier having searched on goggle wondering why drummer Tico wears gloves. Link led me to an article here, didn't answer my question but the forum gains my interest. So, the rest, they say, is history. Ha. Big fan of the band and I have one of their albums on physical CD (this house is not for sale) and I just ordered "these days" from amazon a while ago. Have a nice day!
