On Journey's Drumset, Thanks Deen Castronovo
Waynes World! Excellent!
Shortly after the 9-11 attacks, Journey, Styx, Bad Company, REO Speedwagon, Kansas, Peter Frampton, Edgar Winter, Jack Blades, Eddie Money and Drew Carey put on a couple of benefit concerts in Atlanta and Dallas called the Volunteers For America
My friend Roger and I headed to the show. Roger is friends with Jack Blades and after we parked he called him. Jack Blades made arrangements for us to be escorted backstage.
It was just like Waynes World. I had the biggest smile on my face you ever saw. There I was backstage with all these Rock icons running around.
Much of the music I listened to my whole life was written by these folks. What a dream to be able to meet so many of your heroes at once.
EVERYWHERE I looked they were running around. James Young, Tommy Shaw, Glen Burtnik and Jack Blades were the first folks we met.
We took photos with many of the performers.
Peter Frampton was almost bald headed. What happened to that hair?
I even took photos of myself sitting at Jonathan Cain’s piano and sitting on Deen Castronovo’s drum set.
Party On Wayne! Party On Garth!
We had a ball!
Thanks Roger Ruzek! If it weren’t for you it would never have happened!
