Here he is playing 23 Minutes in Brussels (video by Joakim)

Stanley sat in on drums for three songs, 23 Minutes in Brussels, Chinatown and Friendly Advice.

Dean posted on Facebook:

It was a special three nights in New York City, with a guest appearance in Williamsburg by Stan Demeski on "23 Minutes in Brussels," "Chinatown" and "Friendly Advice" -- some 19 years after we last played onstage. It was a thrill for all of us. Capped by Stan and Janice Demeski driving Britta and me across the Manhattan bridge at 2 a.m.

Reunited, and it feels so good. Luna, with former drummer Stanley Demeski sitting in tonight!
