“My setup is pretty simple. I get to play a wonderful DW kit that fans of Tommy Igoe's Groove Essentials 1 DVD might recognize. The left hand snare is a DW 12” Popcorn Maple drum. The second bass drum pedal is the kick trigger for the electronics setup. And the cymbals are a pair of 14” Paiste Dark Energy Hats, 16” and 17” Paiste Dark Energy Crashes, and a Zildjian K Custom 20” Dark Ride.

Time is of the essence (isn't that our jobs), so The Miller Machine is absolutely required for this show due to some instant switches. I had the copyist add "On Miller Machine" to the updated copies of the score!”
