:banana::thumbsup::banana: [size=64]FIRST PLACE!!![/size] :banana::thumbsup::banana:
On his 25th birthday, Adrian took first place in tonight\'s first Guitar Center "Store" Drum-Off for 2004!
10 contestants competed, with the top 3 (4 tonight, with a 3rd place tie) moving on to the Store Finals on Tuesday, October 5th. 2 more \'store\' rounds will be held the next 2 Tuesdays, with the top 3 from each of those moving onto the Store Finals as well.
Adrian was the 2nd drummer to play tonight, and did so to a crowd of people yelling and cheering him on the entire time. No other drummer got an ovation like Adrian did, and it wasn\'t because he had a lot of friends there - he deserved it!
I can\'t remember the last time I smiled so hard and for so long that it hurt, but immediately after Adrian hit his first drum tonight, I knew it was his, and the ****-eatin\' grin on my face wasn\'t going anywhere anytime soon!
So once again, Adrian moves on, and will compete in the Store Finals at Guitar Center in Orange, CT on Tuesday, October 5th. Wish him the best!
of note - the guy who won the Orange store finals last year placed 2nd to Adrian tonight. great drummer. extremely technical and syncopated, but more composition than improvisation.
