This is so badd! I've always wanted to get into these kinds of things because it seems like one of the biggest divides between young drummers and the masters. Thank you so much for making a video of this! I've got some serious shedding to do!
Just saw Lenny today at Berklee, he had a clinic about "hihatetricks and stickometricks" at the percussion festival. I believe that I speak for all of us that were there that Lenny is one of the greatest drummers out there, and also one of the friendliest and nicest people out in the world!
"If you love the drums, I love you
but if you DON'T love the drums, I love you anyhow!" - Lenny Nelson
Just practiced the hihatetrics for a few hours, i'm really starting to get a hang on it :)
I'm very happy you enjoyed Lenny Nelson's clinic. I was aware he was able to connect with Berklee. I count myself as a friend of Lenny . We both once worked in the Combat Zone when it was filled with all those sex clubs. Got to know Lenny very well. I have videos posted here at Youtube also.
@midinerd I got a call from Lenny this afternoon. He's doing fine and he sounds very healthy. Don't know how this rumor about his demise got started. Lenny will be with us for many years. Drums are a very physical instrument, so it should keep him here with us for a long time. Lenny has done more than 1,000 videos. He's up to 1,225 if you're keeping track of the count.
Please spread the word that Lenny Nelson is vibrant, healthy and he's very much alive.

Dear Cleforo,
I'm very happy you enjoyed Lenny Nelson's clinic. I was aware he was able to connect with Berklee. I count myself as a friend of Lenny . We both once worked in the Combat Zone when it was filled with all those sex clubs. Got to know Lenny very well. I have videos posted here at Youtube also.
Thanks for the kind words regarding Lenny Nelson.
Best Regards,

@midinerd
I haven't contacted Lenny in a while. You guys sound like he's no longer here. I'll have to find out. Thanks for the heads up.
