    Sean was my teacher during the early Cynic days. He introduced me to Vinnie Colaiuta’s albums. Humble and cool dude. He changed my world and set the foundation for my drumming. One of two teachers that were able to teach me because of how advanced I was starting out. I was blessed to have this Legend come to my home and change my life with his knowledge.

    I remember when I first heard this guy. It was in 1992, and my band had finished soundchecking at the Escape club in Salisbury, Massachusetts. The sound guy started playing this insanely fast song over the pa system. The fastest double bass drumming that I ever heard, but with a fusion twist over the top. It was the death song flattening of emotions. I instantly was a fan of this mans playing. The way he combined insane jazz fusion chops over machine gun double bass, whether it was 16th notes,16th note triplets, he delivered a truly breathtaking performance. And, doing it at 19 or 20 years of age makes it even more jaw dropping. Sean, your skills are missed, but will always be remembered.

      Hey Seth, thank you!!!
      this shooting was and is very dear to me. Sean is one of my main influences and it was such a struggle to get this done for a number of reasons: crazy difficulties, odd circumstances, physical demands and what have you. I learned a lot while doing this episode, not just about Sean or drumming but about how I should proceed with this programme.
