 Answering Your Q's Q:  Dave - How long have you been working in the music industry? A: I have been working as a professional drummer since the mid 80’s playing both drum kit and percussion in "top 40" and "classic rock" cover bands, a Grateful Dead tribute band, and a few original bands. My world really opened up when I got involved in hand drums and added multi-percussion to my list of skills.   Over the years I have enjoyed playing in many different genres from the blues, salsa, R&B, reggae to country and original projects too.  On the stage, I have had the pleasure of playing alongside some of the best musicians around!

When we had relocated to a smaller town that had fewer gig opportunities, the bands I played in were more challenging to maintain and it meant there was more travel on my part to get to the out-of-town gigs. My teac...

Audio Book Review If you have not had a chance yet, we absolutely recommend that you check out Ronnie James Dio's FREE audio book on: Youtube:   Rainbow In The Dark :    https://youtu.be/i-rueiCf4KU     You can also obtain it in hardcover, e-book or paperback formats on Amazon: Rainbow In The Dark   It is a memoir of his earliest music memories as a child playing a horned instrument and how this lead to developing the strength he needed later on as a singer. I learned so much about this "New York guy" living in Los Angeles with a close affinity to the British and a passion for the medieval era. Ronnie tells about the early band experiences and then delves right into his  experiences working with world-famous bands - Rainbow , Black Sabbath and his own band Dio. He speaks about the incredible, life-long drive to write amazing songs, to sing with his best voice, to give his fans memorable experiences... mentoring young musicians. "To be in one world-fam...
