So... A little more about me. If you haven't figured it out yet, my name is Patrick Clarke, I'm 23 years old and I am currently a student at Kean University, majoring in Communications media and film. I'd rather call it broadcast but thats how things go. I have been playing drums for around 10 years now and I rarely go a day with at least playing on my pad. As far as experience goes, I consider myself your average college student. Tired, Broke, but Passionate. I am not a music major or minor (though there is always a chance in the future). I have played with several bands and projects with styles of music ranging from Hard Rock, to Prog. Rock, all the way to Funk and jazz. On top of my hardcore Drum Kit addiction, I also have a little experience with African percussion.
Added to the technical aspect of drumming, I also enjoy the social aspect. One band in particular really opened up the doors to social networking for me, Dub Proof. Founded by my cousin, Nick Paolise and myself roughly 3 years ago, this Reggae project made me realize the hustle and work involved in making a band, a band. I'm sure you'll hear tons more about them in the future.
Enough about me. I would like to get to know some of you. Once I get settled into the whole blog thing I'll post my Contact information so I can learn a little more about the people that follow me. Hell, maybe I'll even interview some of you and make you or your band a featured artist so I can post it on my blog (Network. Network. Network. ^_^ ).
All in all my goal is to get this thing up and running ASAP and to have you get something out of it. So sit back, enjoy, and check back regularly. Cheers!
