"
I would like to thank all who attended the 2007 show, making
it my best show yet. The addition of the live performances in
the lower level was well received. We had over 250 attendees,
30 exhibitors, and gave away over 50 door prizes and giveaways!
I would like to extend my appreciation
to our special guests: The Richie Hart Trio
with Joe Corsello, Larry Levine, Jack Lawton, and especially William
F. Ludwig III.
We also enjoyed the surprise visits
from Bob Gatzen, and Roger
Earle of Foghat.
Many, many thanks to Yamaha Drums, Sabian Cymbals, and Regal
Tip Sticks for sponsoring Larry Levine.
Also DW Drums and Zildjian
Cymbals for sponsoring The Richie
Hart Trio with Joe Corsello. I greatly appreciate the efforts
of all the first class people at the companies that provided the
items for the door prizes and give-aways."
