EP 9 - Drum Teching Down Under: 10 Years In the Making
After ten years of touring, I finally made it to Australia, but it almost didn’t happen! My visa didn’t get approved until the very last day, and for a while, it looked like I might miss the tour completely. Thankfully, everything came through just in time, and I spent seven incredible days drum teching for Jake Garland of Memphis May Fire across Adelaide, Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, and Melbourne.
The trip was packed with some unforgettable moments. I got to see the Sydney Opera House up close, spend a day on Rottnest Island, and even hang out with some exotic animals in Brisbane thanks to Wildlife HQ Zoo and Atreyu for setting that up. It was one of those trips that reminded me just how grateful I am to get to do this for a living. Short but fulfilling, and easily one of the highlights of my touring career so far.
