2014 Drum! Magazine Drummies Awards

[Andy Ziker]

Drummer Cafe, The Jazz Waltz (my new book through Alfred Music–sorry, no press release available at this time, but you can go to the Alfred website to see inside the book), and the Hingestix (a Vic Firth product invented by Drummer Cafe VIP Sam Ruttenberg) have all been nominated for the 2014 DRUM! Magazine Drummies. Help us drum up the vote!  http://www.drummagazine.com/drummies/vote/.]http://www.drummagazine.com/drummies/vote/.

NOTE: there are a whole slew of great books listed alongside mine, including The 2-in-1 Drummer, which David Stanoch helped to create. Is my book deserving? All I can say is that I worked my brains off for one entire year of my life...

Sam, on the other hand, has no competition. The Hingestix are by far the most innovative drum stick/teaching tool on the market. It's a no-brainer.
