Influences
I grew up listening to the Beetles. I remember diggin' on grunge and alternative. I also got into a number of electronic genre's like Jungle, Drum and Bass, Hard House and Breakbeats. (Diesel Boy, Goldie, Denise). I started playing drums and I got into an Indie rock thing like early Weezer and Modest Mouse, Dino. Jr. than later as I played gigs more of the Rock and Roll/classic Rock thing. (Zep., Who, Floyd, T. Rex,) I'm also into many modern rock styles; Foo Fighters, Radiohead, Gin Blossoms, and RHCP too.
EQUIPMENT
I got Pro Drums, Cymbals and Percussion gear.
