I talked to Minnemann last night on the phone and I'm going down there for a few days for some jamming/lessons/talking drums.

I couldn't not post about it any longer! We've been planning it since the beginning of February sometime and we've finally found some time that works for both of us! It's going to be amazing! He'll be picking me up at the airport and showing me around San Diego a bit too, should be awesome!!!!!!!

That's awesome, but how the hell did you make this happen?! Are you related to him?

We got to talking before as I got him to sign some stuff and I showed him a couple of my videos and he liked them and said it would be cool if I could make it down there sometime, so now it's happening! Smile

hahaha, I knew months before all of you!!!

You guys should get matching tatoos. And def get some pics and videos. You guys should have a crazy drum duet and record it or something.

Awesome, he seemed like the type willing to do something like this when I talked to him at Summer Slaughter. Humble, friendly and frighteningly skilled.
