ABOUT

I’ve been playing on/off professionally for nearly 40 years, and just relocated back to the Albuquerque area -- last left in 1996, where I was gigging consistently. Looking to join something high energy and fun with great musicians looking to make great music! Several years back I decided upon the band name “One Foot Out” (onefootoutband.band), but am by no means committed to this name. I am, however, ready to begin searching for the right members to set sail with...

About me: I’m currently a very young 57 years old, and have been playing drums/percussion for 40+ years, receiving my first professional lessons at age 10. I went on to play in school band programs all the way into college, and immediately began playing night clubs upon graduating high school. Fast forward “several” years, and I’ve racked up countless live hours behind my various kits, while at the same time earning a nice/professional/reliable career with the US Air Force – got to see the world and play in many different local bands along the way!

I’ve includied several of my previous demo recordings with my former band Trademark Infringement – a local 60s, 70, and 80s classic rock band I performed with while living in the greater Colorado Springs area … am singing backup vocals on each track.

You can hit me up at via e-mail at: don4ster(at)yahoo(dot)com, or give me (Don) a call at 719-210-5173.

EQUIPMENT

DW Drums 6-piece, rack-mounted accoustic set (not pictured) with A.K.G. mics, and various Roland midi triggering equipment/sound modules (which I really don't use much these days, but are nice to keep in the "tool chest"). I also have various PA equipment, to include a 24-channel Roland mixing board, a wedge monitor, and audio technica headset mic for back-up vocals.
