Re: Any Ray Luzier fans here?

Ray is the man. Great drummer and person. No matter what level of success he's found, he's still the same old Ray, down to earth, and remain's humble. He had a great influence on the rock/metal drumming i learned. Great to finally see him on a stable gig and doing well.
Much respect, Sammy J

Dave, I see you're doing a clinic at MI this Thursday. I can't make it but it's well flyer-ed, have a good time and I'll make sure to promote it to a bunch of students this week. Keep up the good stuff...

Very tough tune to try and cover. Not sure many people on this planet could do justice to it, but I applaud the sack to try to. J.L. was a student of mine at MI. good player and very dedicated...
