In this episode, we discuss his experience programming early drum machines, landing shows like Seussical, Seussical, Thoroughly Modern Millie, Lennon, and I learn why the musical King Kong was so difficult for him to play.
We also talk about his experience subbing and sight-reading a show in front of a Broadway audience because the drummer (who had NO subs to count on) couldn’t make the show one night. What a crazy story!
