John, I love your podcast, thank you very much for doing such a wonderful job. I’m an Elementary School Music Teacher, Composer and play piano, percussion, drums and sing. I had the pleasure of attending the modern drummer festival in 1993 with my Father, who has since passed away. It was amazing how we bonded through all the performing that weekend. The power of music is a wonderful God given gift to all.
❤John thanks for your podcast and the tour of your drum room. It truly is special and unique as well as historic. Please let us know when you open your museum. It's always exciting to hear and informative to experience the stories from the drum/cymbal industry .🥁
Camco, A-Jaxx, Roger's,-Oh My! Cool collection. I have a similar playroom. Mostly Rush related. Especially used drumsticks and drum heads. Happy Drumming 🥁
Thanks for sharing all those amazing keepsakes! And speaking of memories, and as we close out 2023... RIP to Bob Gatzen March 23, 1949 - December 29, 2023 My former boss, friend and decades-long inspiration whose work touched so many in the drum industry, and who just passed away yesterday 12/29/2023 at the age of 74. RIP Bob. 🙏
Very cool collection sir. Mark made my Eames shells for me 2 years ago and all my other drums are since very sad…lol. I’m pretty sure I know where that red Premier set ended up if I’m not mistaken, I believe I saw it set up in his shop. I’ve enjoyed your podcasts very much this past year and I look forward to the coming new year and what is in store. Happy New Year to you and your family sir ! 🥂
