I don't know, I'd say he's pretty special considering his gigs!

Full track from Antione Farard's SPHERE! "Cherishing" is a co-composition between Jerry De Villiers Jr and Antoine and which also features my piano and drums.
Hope you enjoy.

Re: Official Virgil Donati thread

I don't even think using marching sticks and flipping them so the edges are facing the ceiling, ala Coleman/Nilles, is going to buy you a cymbal with Big & Ugly. It must be a relief to hit a real crash after spending time with these ... "I can hear again!" Or maybe the brain is like, ...

Re: VINNIE - The thread about Colaiuta

"Psychic Vampires" People like this are real. In fact, there was a movie about this phenomenon. It sure is real. That's probably why when he used the term in the interview I took notice. I've known guys who shared similar traits and I watched them befriend name guys. Whether they fit this...

Re: VINNIE - The thread about Colaiuta

None better than freshmen at a music college at that. :lol: I personally find things interesting. Not tabloid type gossip, but to get ideas from artists you feel a relation to in how they express themselves musically.

Re: VINNIE - The thread about Colaiuta

I appreciate all of what you've written in response, but it doesn't seem to address my question .. or maybe I missed it! You mention social media and people posting pictures of their children and so on. Yes, but they're offering that information of their own accord. I'm asking why people would want ...
