"In my global travels I meet some very special drummers... Damien Petrilli is one of them! We performed together in Perth on Aug 3, 2007! Damien played great and also spoke very well. His teaching skills and understanding of all aspects of drumming helped all the drummers there! He is a seasoned pro and this is just what the drumming art form needs! Strong leaders like Damien...he is a wave maker! I look forward to returning to Perth and continuing the adventure with him....!"
