Here's a brief walk-around tour of the Alpha Kit. (And yes, that's my long-time drum tech Cubby on hand...)...

4-22-21: Throwin’ it back to 2013, warming up backstage at a Lita Ford/Molly Hatchet show at Sturgis... in one of the greenest green rooms ever. There will be plenty of this again starting in June!...

4-23-12: Finally, after over a year of training exclusively in a home gym environment, it's nice to be back in the groove of the middle-of-the-night public gym workout... with hardly anyone else around! Of course, Planet...

5-1-21: California dreamin’ on my run today... on sabbatical, enjoying the remote farmlands of central Cali. Looking forward to a return to the road later this month with Lita Ford... and a return to running in unfamiliar...

5-23-21: Sad to report the passing of my Nelson bandmate, Joey Cathcart, this past week. The Nelson Bros. put together a nice tribute for him at Meethook Live, and they asked me to do a little vid for the occasion. Joey was a...

6-11-21: Out for a workout and run this morning in Wisconsin. So great to be back out here doing this s**t! Hittin’ with Lita Ford tonight. See all of our upcoming dates HERE....

6-27-21: Hittin’ the weights late-night after a fun show at the IDL Ballroom in Tulsa last night with Lita Ford. Did some chest and back supersets, along with plenty of agonizing “drumbell” movements, which I explain in the...

7-2-21: Late-night training in Indianapolis, after a Lita Ford show last night. The train rolls further east today....

8-12-21: Headed back to Sturgis today for more of this tomorrow! "The Lost Art of Headbanging” (from the tail end of my solo at Sturgis 2018…)...

Alphabet Drumming™ has been my magnificent obsession for a number of years now. It’s my way of combining drumming and writing, where I spell out various words or phrases in rhythm, creating a unique language of sounds. Here’s...

And from the other side of the kit, here's a little multi-voice improvisation where we keep a very basic kick/snare groove chugging along, while we integrate multi hats and cowbells....

A little pre-production vid—with experimental effects—from an upcoming piece from LA director, Egon Blix....

A quick snippet from the practice room. These kinds of vids were never meant to see the light of day... just logging riffs and exercises for my own personal archives. But some of these sound pretty cool, I think. Love all of...

12-4-21 - This week marks ONE YEAR since our official pre-launch of Dragon Dirt, my custom blend all-in-one superfood powder. Here’a quick video of thanks to all of our loyal Dirt-Drinkers out there, with a bit of reflection...

This is another practice room video of initially working out this Alphabet Drumming groove for the chorus of Twisted's "I Wanna Rock." Looking to include a funky instrumental interlude of this tune on my upcoming "The Boy Is...

Here's a little snippet from a few years back, working on some odd-note phrasings. The time remains "in 4," but I'm experimenting with some 5-note groupings to create some tension. Just f*****g around... but that's how we...

From a Lita Ford show in Lorraine, OH. Full moon, summer night, mild breeze... someone in our crew (not sure who) caught a few seconds from this perfect angle. These are the nights I never forget......

This groove is for my version of Black Sabbath’s “Supernaut,” which is set to appear on my next solo record: a Soundtrack for my book, The Boy Is Gonna Rock. And since it will be "an adventurous instrumental tribute to songs...

12-18-21: Soundcheck in Yuma on a chilly afternoon, just before the boss joined in. Last show of the year tonight…
Lita Ford 12-18-21 - Yuma, AZ
Paradise Casino 
(with Vixen and Hells Belles) ...

Here’s an Alphabet Drumming™ groove that utilizes two relevant words: “Sabbath” and “Supernaut.” It’s for an instrumental version of my favorite Black Sabbath song, which is set to appear on my next solo record. Click HERE...

A little fun and games during the drum solo at a Lita Ford show last July, at The Marks and Harrison Pavilion in Ashland, VA. I miss the heat!...
