I’m so excited to announce that I am now appearing at Walt Disney World’s Epcot Center at the UK Pavilion in a brand new show, British Revolution, a Brother Entertainment production.

We play songs from legendary bands like The Who, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Queen, and many more!

Our show schedule is as follows: [As of 06/03/11]

Friday – Wednesday: 3pm, 4:40pm, 6pm, 7pm, 8pm
Thursday: Off

Come check us out… it’s epic.

So it’s been over a year since my last blog post.  Not sure what I’m going to make of this site.  I might turn it into a glorified CV/portfolio.  Who knows.  But at least I’m posting something.

I’m looking to shift into more drumming gigs.  Most people don’t want to give auditions to someone who doesn’t have youtube videos.  So to prove I don’t suck at drums, I started with Rush’s “Tom Sawyer”.

I’m recording audio from the Rock Band video games to get “Everything but the Drums” recorded.  It’s a very handy method to avoid playing on TOP of the original drum track, which is very distracting.   More videos to come!

As you see, the first drum hit is actually on a pickup eighth not (the 3 AND beat).  I mixed it down too.

Here’s the MP3: “Rock & Roll” by Led Zeppelin with 2 Bar Click.

Let me know if it helps.

I haven’t made a web site in quite a while, but I recently decided to design one for my brother’s band (in which I play drums), Buffalo Gun. I used the WordPress CMS and created theme from scratch, with the help of WPDesigner.com. The new site also implements many of the helpful widgets provided by Reverb Nation.

We are still putting the finishing touches on The Bad, and finally have a proper place to promote it when it is released.
