I'm back home from my trip to Canada. I have got to say I am totally inspired by what I experienced. I had two four hour lessons with Stephane Chamberland in Quebec City... his professionalism and dedication to drumming is at the highest level. I then spent the weekend at The Cape Breton International drum festival... The organizers of the event Bruce and Gloria Aitken put together a spectacular show. I met so many great artists who were completely willing to talk and share their knowledge and experience. What an incredible opportunity it was to attend this festival... I sure am proud to be a drummer... Dom absolutely rocked the place with his inspirational talk and dynamic playing... A sincere thanks to everyone who was part of this event, I will remember it forever.  
  2.13.08 The new website is up and running! Please sign up for the mailing list! I am planning to attend The Cape Breton Drumfest April 26th-28th! I'm looking forward to this marvelous event I have heard so many great things about. This will be my first time seeing the exuberant Dom Famularo perform live, as well as many other extremely talented artists. Hope to see some of you there.
