I am 55 Years Old and have been playing drums for about 37 years now. I have been an avid fan of Premier Drums and how fantastic they sound from the beginning! I have played with Dave Shogren (Original Bassist with the Doobie Bros.), and on occassion with Dale Ockerman (Keyboardist with the Doobies), Dave Hayden (Bass) and Dave Gonzales (Guitar) (Syndicate of Sound and Bobbie Bare), Danny Hull (Sax Player with Journey, The DoobieBros., Eddie Money, Red 7 and others). I am currently with The Great Oglee Moglee Blues Band (Jay Ogle (Guitar), Gary Gehman (Bass) and Torry Wilson (Keys), as well as the Bear Creek Community Church Praise & Worship Team, and The Theos Project (Christian Progressive and Rock), Two Demo recordings will be out soon.
I own a recording studio (Selective Hearing Recording) and a Sound Co. My Wife and I also own a business MDP (Music Development Partners, LLC. in Stockton CA.
I currently own a few English made Drum Sets (A 1995 Genista Birch, a 1994 Maple Signia, a 2006 Artist Maple, wow these kits are awesome!) and a 1970 expanded Rogers Kiit.
I have been married for over 18 years and have two beautiful daughters (Tiffany and Terra)

hi Paul ,
good to meet you . the problem i'm having is i can't seem to add anyone on to 'my friends request' because the little man icon that allows you to add friends is missing . i've written tech support a zillion times and nobody writes back .............very frustrating . so , hello from a far and when and if drumnetwork gets off their ass and gives me some help i'll add you and the other 20 or so people that are wanting to add me as well ............i'm a DW endorsee for the last 16 years , but good drums are good drums , whomever makes them , it takes a good drummer to make a drum sound good.
i'm sure your good !!! take care man

I have actually gone out to the house and applied for a job sometime back when they were hiring and I didn't even get a call back, I was a little pissed, but oh well. From what I hear, their stuff isn't all that great anyway. Maybe for the up and comers in the metal industry but as far as big touring metal bands, their "Shit" can't hold up to the punishment. Keep in mind this is not from my personal exp. this from people who are or have used Madison products. Anyway thanks for the add. Check out our site sometime.
Thanks for the blast Paul...greetings from Times Square..say hi to Dale, met him a few years back, all the best,
Jon
