It was June 1979, the music at the time were mainly disco hits and “Minute by Minute” by the Doobie Brothers. As a 12 year old boy in Northern Kentucky wanting to be a drummer wasn’t too encouraging by any means with the music of the day . |
I needed a powerhouse performance to inspire me. In walked in drummers like John Bonham, Carl Palmer, Steve Smith, Peter Criss, and the one and only, Neil Peart. Overwhelmed by these performers, I wanted to be one of these Greats. “Ha”, I have a long way to go. But I worked as hard as I could. Being involved in school band, different bands though out my teen years and low and behold being asked to be in a working band at the age of 19. The ups and downs of being hired and fired by all kinds of musicians did mold my persona to a positive effect. You always learn by your mistakes!!! |
