University of Kentucky... those were the days.

your low end rolls are so accurate and smooth.

Mike is an awesome instructor. He would come help out with my high school drumline and had the most insightful advice, both drumming and life related. Good times.

Yeah I remember gridit! That was about the only place to find sheet music online back in the day. Haha I copied that flamdrag background to put on my Windows Me wallpaper

[MrSamkays]

i admire the dynamic and balanced style in your playing: obviously rooted in your focus on sound quality and rhythmic accuracy--ahead of the showy stuff. your interpretation of that accented flam tap groove soon after the isolated three right hand flams--textbook solid. that whole thing to the end makes ya wanna dance!

[MrSamkays]

hey, did anyone record your dci solo? would be great to see and/or hear

[c1981]

Man I'm jealous this guy got to march Xmen 98. That was the one line in the history of DCI, I would have wanted to march

I thought your solo was great when I saw it... for whatever that's worth!
