OK...I've whetted the appetite for everyone to check these guys out. Maybe they'll come blog.

OUT@!

To make up for that previous post

These are two of our artists that have been playing a lot of the same places. Gregg is a slammin' drummer that is a legend in his own mind and Trent has done a ton of local work with numerous bands all over the country. They're really cool to deal with and I know Potter has some stuff out there on You Tube. Maybe I'll post some.

Introducing Gregg Potter and Trent Anderson

I don't know if any of ya'll saw this on 6/6/07, but it was really a joke. These are two of Chicago's local hero drummers, Gregg Potter (left) and Trent Anderson (right). I would list who all they've played with, but I'll let them tell you.

Anyway, Gregg and Trent seem to be at the same places at the same time, usually playing shows in different time slots. It's kind of cool that way.

Hopefully, neither Potter nor Trent got their panties in a twist over the earlier post.

Hey from Dale

Ahoy! Dale Moon here. Cool idea West...this should be a great forum for us drum geeks. Looking forward to venting and updating from the road. More soon.

Shameless plug follows: Check out the Travis Larson Band at a music store near you as part of the Digitech "DigiTruck" tour. Details: http://www.digitech.com/Digi_Truck_tour/index.php

Hello To Everyone!

So, this is an experiement. I have invited some of the guys that I talk to a lot in my work to come here and talk about what they have going on or whatever they want to talk about. It doesn't have to be about the gear or anything they're doing musically. That would be very cool of them to do, but this whole "new media" thing has me thinking that blogging might be sticking around. If people read the dumb stuff I right about, then blogs are here to stay.



Due to circumstances, I have been lucky enough to have been able to develop some good relationships with some great guys in the music industry. These guys here on this blog are just the best, "down to earth" guys you'll come across. (or at least the ones that I know and just might have time to let us all know what's going on from time to time.)

Please check out their links and you tube them if you can.
