Thomas Lang is a drum beast!
I don't recognize many people on those pics, but cool nonetheless!

Love the one with Dave McClain.  That guy doesn't get enough credit for his drumming IMO.

Nice shots!

It's cool to see Tal Wilkenfeld among the greats.  She's a phenomenal bassist.

Seeing all these pics really just makes me that much sadder that I couldn't go to NAMM this year, though.

Haven't seen MP and Chad Smith together before, wonder if they're mates?
Even though I haven't heard MP enjoying any RHCP material for years I'm sure he would agree that Smith has got a great sense of groove going...
This is my new signature. Enjoy.

Correct me if wrong, but it's Buddy's grandson is it not?

Just that Neil Peart wrote a bit in Roadshow about him and Nick, Neil seems to be pretty good friends with the Rich family.

If the picture didn't say Chad Smith, I would've taken a quick glance and said "Oh Will Ferrell's at NAMM."

I can't imagine anyone being able to record a song from that show at all.  Way too metal and too much headbanging going on to properly hold a camera.  Ah to have been at that gig...

That's because I wasnt there shooting it for everyone.  As I mentioned to you on Friday when I saw you at the Tama Booth, that place is TINY!  I would have had to wait for hours to secure my spot in there.  I'll wait until you guys play out in LA at a bigger venue to tape it  =)

I believe the reason the Lazy Tomato Entertainment subdivision of Ytsejam was created specifically for Side Projects.  If anything, it'll come out on that, I'm sure.

Chad Smith (RHCP/Chickenfoot) is next to Mike.  Steve Smith (Journey) is the bald guy all the way to the right in the back.  Jason Bittner (Shadows Fall) is the guy in the Zappa shirt.  The guy on the bottom right is Joe Bergamini.  He was a senior at my high school when I was a freshman.  He was in the Broadway company for the Billy Joel show 'Movin' Out'.

From left (standing): Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater, "Uncle" Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, monster clinician Thomas Lang, metal wizard Derek Roddy, [company co-founder] Rob "Papa" Wallis, Pink's Mark Schulman, rock legend Carmine Appice, percussion guru Pete Lockett, [company co-founder] Paul "Papa" Siegel, and the great Steve Smith.
Sitting: Human drum machine Jojo Meyer, double bass ace Jason Bittner, Drummer's Collective polyrhythm professor Jason Gianni, Galactic beatmaster Stanton Moore, and editor "Cousin" Joe Bergamini.
