I am a drummer who plays and teaches drums for a living. I have been doing it now for over 10 years professionally and have been unlucky enough to have never made it big in some original band, but lucky enough to have travelled the world playing, and had some of the most amazing experiences you could ever have wished for!
Ok, so I said that I was leaving the cover scene back in Dec., but I got a call that changed my mind. Remember "Dog Voices"? Of course you do! Well, Rich Moscola gave me a call and told me that him, Monte and Dan were joining the infamous Bobby Lynch's band to start up a new project and they wanted me behind the kit. So I said hell yeah!! And now we're rockin out in a band called "Monte and The All Stars". Make sure to check us out this summer down in LBI or anywhere up and down the tri-state area.
While still teaching private drum lessons,I will also continue to travel in and out of the country with the corporate entertainment group "The Rhythmics". That show is out of control with many drummers, tap dancers, hip hop dancers, and many other performers who come together to put on a really sick show that is based on a NYC street type jam. You can see more of my drumming and touring pics at djjohnston.com.
