Bosphorus Night @ Steamers
On an evening that is usually quiet as far as post-show events Thursday became the new Saturday this year. Tama, Ludwig and Drumsmith.com all hosted special events on Thursday evening thus it was impossible for me to cover all of these. I did make 3 out of 5 and this was one was exceptional.

 

Bosphorus artists Ralph Peterson and Stanton Moore put in some quality time at the famous jazz club Steamers in Fullerton. It was just one of those nights where you were happy to be where you were.

A rare moment

Probably one of the thinnest non-reinforced wood shells I've ever seen, and yeah, it sounded as good as it looked.

Alicia Warrington, Chris & Kelly Brady
Chris Brady made a rare trip topside.
It was a treat to make his acquaintance in person.

Bronwyn

 

Scott Brunson / Silken

 

A Brunson kit


Cadeson

I didn't spend a lot of time at the Cadeson booth. The product layout seems to be better in Frankfurt
and I'll have more time to focus on product at that show in the Messe pictorial.


Canopus

 

I have no idea.

Mr. Craviotto had much to smile about
at this years show.
Truly some of his finest work to date.

The best part about trying to write a comment about Johnny's stuff is that it takes only
one or two words to know that whatever you say, it's redundant. LOOK at this work.


Best Wood Drum Kit

 

 

This kit now resides in the home of Jimmy Kimmel.

 

 

 

Craviotto introduced a new metal offering in partnership with AK.
I get the feeling Adrian isn't getting much rest these days.

 

DB Percussions (plural)

 

 


Best WTF?

The finish affectionately known as "Head Cheese".
I love it and the best part is that unlike the SunLuck meat drum, these babies won't rot.

Multiple Choice:
1. They're actually acrylic. They are just filled with byproduct from the local lipo clinic.
2. They're actually acrylic. They are just filled with byproduct from the local moyl.
3. Hannibal Lecter signature kit
4. New Haagen Daaz strawberry / lard ice cream
5. Those guys at the booth are giving out free banana smoothies but...they sorta taste funny.

 

Diril cymbals.
This is my brother Diril and this is my other brother Diril.

 

Very good quality cymbals with a lot of that A thing happening.
