ADRIAN WINS!!!!!!!!
« Reply #36 on: October 05, 2004, 09:13:38 pm »
That is right folks, I am just now returning from Guitar Center to tell all of you that our buddy Adrian "ANIMAL" Tromantano has won the finals for the Orange store tonight.

There was some good competition(Sleeper, Lonnie,etc) but it was our boy in the end...That was nerve-racking.  I will say that it was some of the most intense drumming that I have personally seen out of the man they call Animal.  He finished his set off with a nice loud crack from one of the display snares that were up on the wall behind him and the faces on the judges said it all...JAWS ON THE FLOOR!!!

One word...SER!

walsh, i\'m gonna go ahead and merge this with the main drum-off thread... -dp
Too fat for a tandem bike, and too drunk for a Mountain Bike...taste the fear.

:banana::thumbsup::banana: [size=64]ADRIAN WINS!!![/size] :banana::thumbsup::banana:

That\'s right, as Walsh said, Adrian won the Orange, CT Store Finals tonight. He was a nervous wreck, but I think the rest of us were pretty confident. No one could touch him, and the buzz in the crowd was almost as enjoyable as seeing him actually play.

Adrian moves on to the District Finals in Boston, MA on Monday, October 25th! I will absolutely be driving up to support him, and anyone in CT who wants a ride up, you got it (room permitting)! Let\'s keep on supporting, congratulating, and believing in him, and let\'s take him all the way! Great night. Keep it going.

What are the details of the Boston competition?  I would love to hang with my Breakfast crew if the circumstances permit.  

Keep me posted!

The guitar Center link posted earlier in this thread won\'t load for me so would someone please tell me what prizes Adrian has captured and which one(s) he is contending for in Boston?

What a night! Topped off with a very Smokin Boomer!

Excellent job by Joe and Alanie (sp?). If it wasn\'t for Adrian\'s incredible performance, you guys would have been battling for the crown!
