hey yeah drum4fun pmed and im stoked man, cant describe how thankful and happy i am!

i hope he got to read my speech so that he knows how thankful i am for what hes done for me!

hmmm good point, it will actually prb be a lil closer to the retail price i guess:|

rather spend my cash on good music to study from, good instruments will come later if i get to play some good gigs!

What music did they play at the waldman gig? He never puts up his live dates on his website!!!

hope you enjoyed it!

Well...

Since you asked. I think I'll start another thread about the Waldman gig. Randy came up to the table that me, Vinnie, Mark Moralez of Kaman Music and Makoto (??)(I think that's his name??....... I'm so bad with names) were having dinner at and said something about "next time". So hopefully there will be another "next time" where Waldman takes his music out to play with Vince and others live here in L.A.

Hey John,
How was that gig dude??
I need a full review of the show here.I tried to answer your email but it kept being sent back to me for whatever reason.

You must have had such a great time attending the show bruh!
And on top of that you had dinner with Vinnie!! [img]eek.gif[/img]
You never cease to amaze me John.One month you're in Weckl's newsletter,the other you're having a meal with Vincemeister.HA HA HA!!Ridiculous dude.

Let's get to the review now.Tell us some stories about Vinnie.Or pm me if it's too personnal.

I'd like you to tell more about snare drums.Did he say which snares he prefer?i'd love to know which models he uses on a regular basis.

C'mon,c'mon John...

The reserve isn't met yet. Wonder what it's set at.

ps.... S.P. By the way, Drum4fum got a drumstick signed for you last night at the Waldman gig with Vinnie. Talking with him about snares last night, he said he had gone thru probably hundreds of snares to find "the one" that he likes. So I would assume, just because it's a "signature" snare, that he probably auditions his snares like he does his cymbals. (i.e., K 15" crashes all sound different, but he'll probably go through a few before picking one he likes).

Good luck on your schooling!!
