Roses and Lakers

January 3, 2009

Hello from LA…..livin’ the dream! I was just part of Band Fest 08…a pre Rose Parade event featuring the marching bands that participate in the Rose Parade. I was there with the REMO Drum Circle All-Stars performing on the one of a kind REMO Drum Tower. We were also live on KTLA during the morning news…so it was an exciting couple of days.

The Lakers are on a tear again and I have been playing at the games recently…including the Christmas Day win over boston….I then flew to Vegas to perform with Imelda…so it was quite a busy week for me.

Hope to see you in line for the next great coaster ride

What People Are Saying About Sammy...

"Sammy did an incredible job with the students, both in his drum clinic and his coaching sessions with several of the bands here at the festival. His enthusiasm is infectious, as he clearly has the time of his life behind the drums. The MU Jazz Band had an absolutely fabulous time - and a fabulous experience - with Sammy 'driving the bus'. The band never swung harder." James Olcott - Director Southwestern Ohio High School Jazz Festival
