Me mostly... I was fascinated  by the instrument and making a beat!

3.When did you get your first kit? Tell us about it…

 The first kit was not mine... it was my cousins he had bought it as he was gonna start a band and I got to be the drummer.. it was a low line cAlled further 5 piece red sparkle with no cymbals!! Lol

4.Where your parents supportive of you and your loud / expensive new habit?

They were.. but they didnt help me in the sense of getting me a kit or cymbals stuff like that.. but they never stopped me from pursuing  it.. I think they thought it was a phase I was going through

5.What drum performance on an album is perfection to you?

 There are so many great drummers and recordings out there.. but early on I'd have to say Phil Rudd on acdc s back in black.. genius in simplicity !! Production.. everything he plays on that record is just spot on.. ,cymbal crashes always in just the right spot.. fills that add to the dynamic of the song!  Just killer

I'm playing a ddrum Reflex kit.. 2 22" kiks.. 10  q2   13  .. 16 toms.. sabian cymbals... pearl eliminate pedals... very happy with it

7.If you could have a dream kit tell us about it in DETAIL
  

I'd go to ddrum and play and hand pick each drum  that would go on my kit.. color would not matter... I'd be looking for the closest tonal qualities  from drum to drum.. that would  be my studio kit

8.Name your top 5 drummers excluding Neil Peart and Mike Porty

John bonham..
Gene hogland.
.Igor cavalera.
.Phil rudd.
