2-11-21: Here’s a throw-back “story-time” vid from just a few years ago around the release of my book, The Boy Is Gonna Rock. I read a brief excerpt that deals with “the moment” that one discovers their destiny—a common...

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...

In the spirit of trying to archive more of my “secret” videos that I have amassed in embarrassing quantities through the years, here’s a solo excerpt from a rowdy Lita Ford show, somewhere in Norway. European audiences are...

Here’s a drum solo excerpt from a Lita Ford show with my own custom DW kit…. featuring a multi-voice, double-bass/double hi-hat pattern along with “the incredible tilting chain rack.” We often have to use gear that’s provided...

Here’s a Part One excerpt from a show in Zhengzhou during my 2019 Solo Drumming Tour of China. This one was in a smaller hall than normal, but the place was packed out… and the show turned out to be a sentimental favorite in...

“Gotta Let Go,” our show-opener the other night at the Iron Trail Motors Event Center with Lita Ford. Right-hand lead? Left-hand lead? I actually switch between the two throughout the set, without even really thinking about...

Early morning run in Florence today. Insane beauty abounds! Wound up doing a seven-miler because I kept getting lost.. which is not unusual for me in European cities. But Florence sure is a special place!...

As far as I can tell, this was the one that started it all!...

1-5-21 - Thanks for the killer Dragon Dirt launch this weekend, everyone! So thrilled to hear about everyone “digging the dirt!” Scope out a bag here....

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...

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...

2-15-22: Last night’s run on the boat. From the Rock Legends Cruise. 30 laps = 5 miles. Livin’ it…...

While soloing is often about notes, notes, and more notes, playing with a band is ultimately about space, space, and more space. A drummer’s “sound”—and, in fact, the overall feel of the music—is largely governed by the space...

Here’s a drum solo excerpt from a Lita Ford show with my own custom DW kit…. featuring a multi-voice, double-bass/double hi-hat pattern along with “the incredible tilting chain rack.” (Hat on the far right operated by my...

Yet another clip from the “private practice room” archives, and something never meant to see the light of day. Working on a little improv that features a lot of double-stroke combinations, utilizing the full range of sound...

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...

Here’s another solo clip I just stumbled across in the archives from a Lita Ford run through Sweden and Norway a few years back. Another scaled-down kit situation, but we always try to make do. Dig… To see more of this kind...

...that they are alive and well and living large at Animal Acres near Los Angeles. These curious girls were especially interested in my video camera!...

Thank you, everybody! Should have more Dirt available next week. For everyone who ordered, everything has shipped! Appreciate the love......

12-22-20 - Here’s a backstage clip from a show last year, as Marty and Patrick “take 5" during the drum solo. Notice the variety of fruits and veggies we typically have on hand—all of those phytonutrients and antioxidants are...

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...

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

12-18-21: Soundcheck in Yuma on a chilly afternoon, just before the boss joined in. Last show of the year tonight…

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...

This practice room vid is part of a series I recorded late one night focusing on the “timbale side” of kit. Was trying to work on some improvisational skills within the confines of using just that part of the kit. Still not...
