I just found this online quoting the full list of the names of the drummers in the picture:

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.

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'.

Carmine Appice and MP are the only ones that I can ID out of that whole bunch.

How about a roster?

Darn lucky MP...

I'm amazed that John from SOAD is actually showing some degree of emotion. That dude's face is usually set in stone.

Hehe, yeah. In interviews he reminds me of a broken refrigerator, kinda.

Well, if there was any footage on youtube, and it got posted here. Wey would throw you out head first of the forum, because it's against some rule. Happened to me :(

I hope these shows are being documented for some sort of future official or Ytsejam dvd release for those of us not lucky enough to have attended...

These shows have nothing to do with DT so I'm sure if at all they would be released through MP production and not Ytsejam records !

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.

I'm shocked there's no footage of this on You Tube....???
(you guys are slippin!)

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 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...

The one with Chad Smith and Jericho owns!
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...

I've been friends with Chad for at least 15 years now....
There's a handful of shots of us together throughout the years in the Celebrity Pix Gallery here on MP.com...
MP

That's good news!Do you still listen to RHCP these days Mike?Wonder if Chad gave MP any low down on what the current state of the Chili Peppers is?!
Furthermore, WOOHOO I got a reply from Mike Portnoy, time to die happy now!!!Haha
Ahhh to have friends like MP does would own!

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

All right... At least he's a relative of Buddy Rich.

I could've guessed it...

Re:MP Celebrity Pix - NAMM 2010 Edition (SonorSam)

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.

Nick Rich,would be the son of the late great drumming legend Buddy Rich.

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

You are absolutely right. A very fine drummer.
