    An epic episode of Live From My Drum Room celebrating the 35th Anniversary of the Buddy Rich Memorial Concert on October 14, 1989 in Los Angeles, widely considered the greatest drumming event in history. My guests are the drummers and people who made it possible: Steve Gadd, Vinnie Colaiuta, Dave Weckl, Gregg Bissonette & Dennis Chambers, along with Cathy Rich who produced the show and Rob Wallis of Hudson Music (formerly DCI video) who captured it on film for all of posterity. It was the first time all of us had been together at the same time since that incredible night 35 years ago. The show aired live exactly 35 years to the day - October 14, 2024, in front of a LIVE audience of 40,000 viewers! We shared stories and memories of the event and the late Louie Bellson. (The podcast includes bonus content with Steve Gadd remembering Louie, which was not included in the livestream!) So come along for the ride and please subscribe!

    Some truly exciting news! My new Craviotto drums arrived, so I did an unboxing. Well, a reenactment of my unboxing!

    Also, a short demo of the drums. Ignore the playing, and dig the SOUND of the drums. The drums are wide open, except for the bass drum, which has an EQ Pad inside. I used a Shure MV7 through my Zoom P8 mixer to record them, so the drums are completely flat with no EQ. You're hearing the true sound of the drums. And honestly, they sound much better in person than they do in the recording.
