Drum Lessons from experienced, trained professional – BKdrummer.com

Friendly, supportive drum instruction from a seasoned professional. My goal is to provide you with technical and musical skills that will allow you to express your creativity and get the most out of your musical experience.

Whether you are just exploring the drums, play in a school ensemble, forming a band, interested in a career as a working drummer/percussionist, or want to take your playing to the next level, I can help you achieve your goals.

Individual drum lessons are focused on your needs, desires and ability, but still maintain direction to ensure you have a solid foundation.

Lesson Topics Include:
Technique – Proper grip, posture and physical independence.
Reading – From basic rhythms to complex charts, sightreading and interpreting written parts. Learn to write your own charts.
Styles – Understand the core of each musical style and develop ability to authentically replicate.
Improvisation – From fills to solos, develop your unique style and learn to “play what you hear”.
Dynamics – Learn how to fit in with a group or ensemble. Be more than a drummer, be a musician.
Drum Gear – Equipment selection, Set-up, Tuning, Studio techniques.

I am a trained Drummer/Percussionist with 30 years experience and have played in just about every musical environment possible. From casual and club dates, concerts, TV and movie recording sessions, to classical ensembles, theatre shows, Jazz and Progressive Rock albums.

In addition, I am a BMI writer with compositions currently playing throughout the world, so my perspective is not just from the drummer’s chair. My focus now is teaching what I’ve learned, as my many teachers have done for me.

Please visit my site BKdrummer.com to learn more, or feel free to call or write for more information. I would welcome an opportunity to discuss how I can help you achieve your goals.

As we mentioned last month, Strokeland Records artist Tony Adamo is releasing a cover song from the Eastbay's own “Tower Of Power”. Tony and record producer/guitarist Jerry Stucker, have dusted off the classic “This Time It’s Real”, and added their own “take” to the song.

“This Time It’s Real” is the first song from a new CD (Untitled) to be released by Tony Adamo in 2010. It will soon be released for airplay, but you can hear it here first, at HornDrivenRadio.com. We currently have this new offering in our rotation, and it will play three times in our nearly nine hour rotation.

Guitarist/producer Jerry Stucker brought in R&B/Soul -legend drummer, James Gadson (Bill Withers, Herbie Hancock and Quincy Jones),The organist Neil Larson (Gregg Allman, B.B. King, Whitney Houston), and Reggie McBride on bass (Stevie Wonder, Al Jarreau, Keb’Mo’) to record the rhythm tracks on the song. The horn section is made up of current Tower Of Power members Doc Kupka, Tom Politzer and returning member Mic Gillette.

For more information on Tony Adamo, please visit Tony at www.strokeland.com

We are looking for a new drummer.

Our last drummer was great, but cannot play any longer due to an injury.

We are a blackened thrash/black n roll band.

Influences: NWOBHM, Carpathian Forest, Rainbow, Desaster, Celtic Frost, Exodus, Discharge, Motorhead, Heathen, Dr Know, Rampage Radio KUSF.

We gig about once a month and practice once or twice a week at most.

We currently have a studio that we share with another band in SF.

We're about to release a single and plan to finish recording an album early next year.

As for us, we are old, hard working professionals during the day with families to support. At night we are polar opposites and like to raise hell.

Must be RESPONSIBLE, have transportation, be somewhat employed or at least be able to afford rent, be over 21, and most of all be cool.

Check out our material: www.myspace.com/hellhunter666

This is for all the bands looking for a drummer as well as all the bands looking for a bassist.

I am a guitar player who has landed possibly THE best bassist in the whole region. This guy is like Cliff Burton and Ryan Martini rolled into one. With very inpressive gear.
I also have landed a prodigy on the drums. This guy shreds his 9 piece drum kit in the style of Danny Carey. Also, a very nice kit.

Together, we own a private studio, Massive PA system (enough to thump 3000 people in the chest with kick drum), Lighting rig, 24 channel live board & outboard gear.

Now to my point.....

All of you singers out there still looking for a bassist and/or drummer to complete your band, take one day to come try out for something that is rolling pretty well all ready. We are working with a label, and have everything at our disposal to put on our OWN SHOWS. Imagine not having to deal with the venues! We call the shots! We can go anywhere we want....set up....and put on a fully functional rock show. We have sooo much to offer. Send us a demo, if we dig it, come out to our studio (not SRS or HOH, an actual private studio) on your day off from your bands practice and see if the vibe is there. Time to make a career choice guys. There is a lot of talent out there, it just needs to be organized better. This is a great opportunity for the open minded.

Please send a demo with a note telling us your age and a little background about yourself.

Thanks a lot guys!!
