On The Road...

I'm currently teaching in Saskatchewan, slowly making my way home to Alberta. So between that and with my laptop in the shop these days getting its logic board replaced my blogging will be light for awhile...(what is a logic board anyways???)

In the meantime, here's a few pics of one of my drum sets from a recent rehearsal with Calgary's distinguished contemporary dance company, Decidedly Jazz Danceworks. I'm playing with the upcoming DJD production entitled "Wilds" for the month of March and looking forward to working with resident choreographer Kimberly Cooper, musical director/bassist Rubim De Toldeo and the rest of the highly talented troupe of dancers & musicians. More on this later...

So anyways here's some photos of my drums (because I haven't much else to blog about today!) I'm no Jesse Cahill when it comes to Jazz drumming-photography.....but if you can name what brand(s) of drums these are, you will win a special Four On The Floor prize!

HINT: There are FOUR brands of drums represented here and NONE of them are made by Gretsch : )

And also, with apologies to Chad Anderson....I know, the bass drum lifter and muffling towel on the 16" inch bass drum is cheating. Don't worry, I'll "get it" eventually...

Enjoy.
