In this podcast I interview Gil Sharone, who is widely know for his work with bands like The Dillinger Escape Plan, Stolen Babies, Marilyn Manson, Team Sleep, and Puscifer. Not only is Gil an in-demand touring drummer, he’s also man behind the #1 best- selling DVD “Wicked Beats – Jamaican Ska, Rocksteady and Reggae Drumming” and has recored for major motion pictures and television. Gil’s approach is simple – in theory: Always be prepared and serve the music.
