Well ... sort of.

Actually, I sat in for a song or two on guitar and did a bit of vocal harmony on another song but did not actually sit in with Sam Austin.

Some of you know that Sam Austin is a master guitarist and in fact, sat in with Brad Paisley for a version of "Timewarp" which is no piece of cake to play to say the least. The song starts at a tempo of 180 and ends at about 240.


But ... I digress.... the point here is Sam Austin's drum majesty! Take a look at a clip from the upcoming movie .... "Sam Austin, man of mystery and uncanny talent" at:

Moved to MFR area since it's more about your modeling business Myles.

Sam is a good dude and a personal friend. very good guitar player.

I removed the photos as this post is about the magic of Sam and has nothing to do with models .... this is Sam's 15 minutes of fame :)

I know I'm late to the party, but shouldnt this kind of post be in "Sound Hound Lounge? It has nothing to do with product.
Myles, I thought you were only smoking cigarettes. :worried

Loni,

That is where it was originally posted but one of the moderators moved it as it intially had photos of two of the models and they thought I was promoting the model side of the bizz even though there was no reference to the agency.

I am laughing my ass off!
Sam is a funny guy!

I would seriously consider him as the drummer for my next church-burning Norwegian death-metal project!

Did you see the picture of your full stack in Sam's office?

What is not shown here and missed by people that have not been in Sam's office is the fact that the office is only about 50% larger than the amp :)

Oh, Myles!
No tubes in church-burning band.
All processed guitars and triggered drums.
We're talking pure evil here!:stir

Gary Busey is a character. Next time Buddy Whittington is out here ask him about Busey at one of the Mayall shows at the Canyon Club a few times ago when I was working with Buddy.

Interesting story :) Not as interesting as the Zakk Wylde / Tommy Smothers stuff but interesting.
