Today I went out to the Samson office. I had to take my video camera out there for something and had to talk to a few people there and also Mark told me that Carmine Appice was coming to do some sort of video for Zoom. I rolled in about 11:15 and walked into marketing. I said my hello's to everyone and walked over to talk to Jack Knight for a bit. Mark and I talked about this new promotion that Zoom will be doing with Carmine for the H2. When Carmine showed up Mark took him for a tour of the office. After the tour Carmine sa
id hello to Doug... Doug was a tech for Cactus way back when. Carmine and Doug talked for a few minutes. After they finished we went into one of the meeting rooms for lunch and for Mark and Carmine to discuss what's going to happen with the upcoming promotion. On
ce lunch was finished we headed over to the new production ro
om. Part of the promotion is filming a really cool video about Carmine's history in music from his days in Vanilla Fudge up to what he's doing now in Slamm. John DiMaggio the video king was on hand of course to film it! He talked about his time in Cactus and hanging out with Led Zeppelin back when nobody knew who they were. He also shared stories about his time playing with Rod Stewart and Jeff Beck. Carmine is a great guy and really funny. He told us that Jeff Beck said Carmine is the cause of his tinnitus. Carmine has loved and used Zoom products for the past 10-15 years or so, so when his brother Vinny started working with Zoom, Carmine was all aboard! After learning the history of Carmine Appice he took some pictures with a few of us and he also signed drumheads and other assorted things for people in the Samson office... Class Act all the way!!!

Bagel...Oh sorry about being away but I have been trying to figure out my new Mac...I will have some stuff up this week!
