Solo Drums, 1997.

"Back in the day," I used to play club gigs by myself without a band. This is one of my solo pieces, named "Skippy" because of the stuttering foot pattern, played at Instant Karma the year I joined Atomic Opera.

Very nice! A very musical drum solo....you didn't just thrash away like most drummer do.

What kit are you playing on in this video?

Justin, that's my same ol' trusty Tempus kit that has been my constant companion since 1988. Back then it was still set up in the traditional way. The only weird thing about my solo gig setup was a snare drum mounted vertically to my left and played with a pedal.
