Re: Close encounters of the drumming kind...

I talked to Jeff Hamilton after a clinic last year and he was real nice.
I also got to eat dinner with Mickey Roker between sets at a show in the Smithsonian (he was on the bill with my old drums/vibes instructor-Chuck Redd and I had space at my table). He sat down, ate and told great stories about Diz and how he got his calypso chops.
Chuck later asked me if I wanted to drive & roadie for Mickey to a couple of gigs between Richmond & DC (Hell, Yes!) but that fell through....
