Jo Jo Mayer



I dont have any mp3s or anything current, but I showed up with a desire to contribute.


Like most drummers, Jojo Mayer's bands are totally wack and not worth the time. For whatever reason big time drummers who do drummer festival tours and wear SONAR t-shirts and PEARL sponsored underwear think its OK to start Fusion bands so they can jerk-off on their drums. His solo playing is unreal. He was born in Zurich in 1973 and started playing drums when he was 2. By the time he was 18 he was playing some wierdo jazz thing blah blah whooo cares. Dude can do one handed rolls with both hands AND BOTH FEET. This is some sweet drum and bass beat that opens his sploogie dvd. The slow motion is kinda cool, slightly lame.


If you think this is cool, check this one out

it's funny to picture you playing drums in pj and then picture you sitting in front of a computer studying this guy's moves
