Re: The Tony Williams Lifetime Tribute Band

With that lineup they'd be stupid to not put out a live record. A DVD would be killer too!

Re: Stick Quest

I buy sticks all the time. At the rate I've been gigging lately (let's say 4 gigs a week) I try to keep 8-10 pairs in the stick bag. I find that it's not the bead of the stick that gets worn, but more so and inch or two below that. It just slowly gets worn down and the weight of the stick no longer ...

Everyone is up there on that stage grooving their asses off, they're dancing, they're smiling... -The vibe of the ...

Re: LAMA

YamahaPlayer, I'm sorry man, but your information is just incorrect- LAMA is indeed an accredited school, has mostly international students, and will also get you an apartment to stay in. While I admit that there was a variance in ability, each student improved dramatically by the end of their time ...
