Gavin? Do you know what happened to the clinic at Guitar Center? The fellow said it was going to be posted on their Youtube channel. Nothing as of yet and that was a really great clinic as well. The sound was superb thanks to your PT engineer being present.

I took a few lessons with Gruber way back when he still had a drum set out and would (sometimes) play for you. Most people are right. He's more of a teacher than he is a drummer. Being around Buddy as much as he was, he got to see how a lot of what & how Buddy could execute 1st hand. If you want...

Ahhh yeah!!! Looking forward to the hang. Mark and Chooch, it's just not the same without you guys!!! Ditto that. Scott, let me know if funds are needed for foodage or snacks. Or would you like me to bring some stuff? Potluck maybe? We'll need plenty of nourishment if we're going to shed & geek...

I gotta say that this was one of the best clinics I've been to in a long time. Gavin did an excellent job of being really concise in his explanations of what he was doing, how he goes about dissecting his playing, and where he pulls his inspirations for phrasing. I liked the part where he explained ...

Thanks for the picture and video - Actually on the video I heard 1 Chicago song and 2 Blood, Sweat and Tears songs - pretty hilarious either way! Cnath It was late when I posted this. And you're right. I actually started recording late, so he was ending the Chicago diddy. Take a look at Gregs bass ...

Probably the one thing I hate about being a drummer. You can't avoid seeing your gut if you've got one because you're sitting down. This is where keyboard players have a distinct advantage in the "stage presence" dept. haha! The one thing about Beck is, you could be blindfolded in an eleva...

same here! miss these days... http://bit.ly/edLZy4 Yep. Those were the days. (BTW...nice studio James. You've moved up in the world!) I'd pay $100 for a video of you getting a hug from Vinnie that one time at NAMM. That was priceless! And how about the after NAMM hangs at Chris Bradys pad? That pla...

I the great thing about Lorenzini's place is the room for drumming is next to (but separate from) the outside where hang/chatting happens. need to have the two pretty much. Guess Pusey's too busy playing with pop stars to respond. How dare he allow gigging and real life to interfere with INTERNET. ...

Greg apparently wanted to reminisce down memory lane and started playing some off the cuff Chicago tunes. Totally hillarious! BTW....the original drummer (Danny Seraphine) from Chicago just happened to be there that evening as well. Check it out. I uploaded it to youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watc...

Thanks Gavin for the heads up. Will be there for sure. Nice meeting you last night at Cafe Cordial =))
