I saw Chester Thompson with Genesis in Atlanta, many years ago. I am friends with John Wackerman, Chad's brother.

Another happy accident, sorta like the John Cage video I posted yesterday.

One can't march 4 years of Drum Corps without learning to speak Drum.

I came across this two weeks ago, searching for Inca Roads and You Are What You Is live video. Very cool.

I saw Zappa perform live at least 5 times. He surrounded himself with outstanding musicians ever tour.

Holy cow. Glad I stopped drumming a long, long time ago. I’m not fit to tie these guys’ shoelaces.

I saw Bozzio in 2006 or maybe it was 2007 in Minneapolis when he was playing with Dweezil for the Zappa Plays Zappa tour. What a truly incredible talent... technical... tight. Amazing.

Then again, Frank wrote The Black Page No. 1 specifically knowing Terry had the ability to perform it to the level of precision that he demanded of his band members.

My mouth is open and in tribute to these men (and John Cage) I am silent.
