I hung out with TS and then did some roadie drum tech work with them (25 years ago) they let me work with them when I turned 18, other wise JJ would bring me to the gigs cos he lived upstairs from me with Tony Petri (first drummer).
They know me as Rob Johnson. It was a ton of fun. Dee gave me some singing lessons, JJ guitar lessons and I bought a fender deluxe reverb from him (my first gtr amp) and drum lessons from Tony and later Joey Brighton. Charlie told me what sound was about and Elmo Nitrate was just plain crazy. They would let hang with them at the boards.
Break a leg!
