KISS: End Of The Road Tour

4/9/2019

A tremendous show by KISS tonight in Nashville! They smacked us with 10 tons of hits, fire, and explosions... 💿🔥💥 I thoroughly enjoyed the show but the biggest thrill was the lil' one getting a picture with the favorite member... The Demon.

Thanks to Eric Singer (a standard for being a pro rock drummer decade after decade) for taking care of the Pearl Drums crew as always!😸

Happy Birthday Jeff

Happy Birthday to the late Jeff Porcaro... today would've been his 65th birthday and 1st eligible day for MediCare.

Do you remember where you were when you heard about Jeff's passing?

Perc'in It Up...

I hit these for about 4 minutes and people in the room clapped afterwards. We did this for about 2 hours and then both decided to call it a night.

Ben Graves

5/10/2018

Sorry to hear about the sudden passing of drummer Ben Graves. We worked together in the early 2000's when he was a member of Murderdolls... always pleasant and laser focused on his craft. R.I.P.

We only had a 'phone relationship' until finally meeting in person at the Winter NAMM Show mid-2000's. First thing I noticed was he seemed shorter on the phone :) Ben's 6'7" frame ensured his presence filled whenever room he was in... even the massive Pearl booth we had that particular year. We talked drums, music, and what was going on with him at the time... such a nice guy. R.I.P. Ben

Lester Estelle

So let me tell ya’ about yesterday’s session with Lester Estelle at Pearl Drums HQ... this was my first time seeing him play in person and man oh man what a powerhouse! It was a tremendous pleasure working throughout the day with him and hearing his stories during lunch... you gotta check him out while he's on the road with Kelly Clarkson!

Paul Frederick

7/24/2017

I'm borrowing this picture of Paul Frederick from another post because it shows how I've always pictured him. He was an enormous help to me when I was first starting in the industry and it really meant a lot. Paul worked with EVERYONE throughout his career and maintained their respect.. he was legit.

An extensive amount of MI knowledge wrapped up in an over-the-shoulder braid, and a huge hearty infectious laugh... that was Paul to me. RIP
