Sorry for the redundant post, but...

Well, I'm sorry for the redundant post. In any case, I have to wonder how he was taught. Are his parents musicians? Did he had a "kids life" or was he "attached to the drums," never going out to play? At 20, is he pursuing a career in music?

I have known prodigies who burned out and hung up thier spurs in frustration. The love or passion for the art wasn't there. However, this kid plays with a feel and style that would imply considerable experience in additon to chops, and I can't imagine how that was achieved by 12!!!

I hope he loves it and continues to love it and keep sharing that witrh the rest of us. I'd pay to go hear him play!

Peace.

Nick
