&lt;br /&gt;
Mapex Drums’ Drummer of Tomorrow contest is gearing up for the United States Final round, being held at the NAMM Show in Anaheim, California, this coming January 19. The performance is scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. at the Anaheim Hilton in California, Pavilion C &amp;amp; D. Doors open at 7:30 p.m., and unlike most NAMM Show events that require a pass, the event is open to the public.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The four Drummer of Tomorrow finalists set to perform are Joe Maddox of Indianapolis, Indiana; Stephen Mixson of Detroit, Michigan; Michael Davila of Kerrville, Texas; and Rick Trice of Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The finalists will be performing with the all-star band &lt;a href="http://blog.sinverguenzamusic.com/"&gt;Sinverguenzamusic&lt;/a&gt;,  which features musicians who have played with artists including Michael Jackson, Chaka Khan, Phil Collins, and Madonna. The group is led by Mapex artist Walfredo Reye Jr.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The winner of this round will travel to Frankfurt, Germany, to compete against twelve other countries for the World Title in April. All winners of the Drummer of Tomorrow contest will be entered to receive over $50,000 in prizes and drum gear, including drumsets from Mapex, cymbals from Zildjian, drumheads from Remo, sticks from Vic Firth, and songbooks from Alfred Music Publishing. In addition, the top winner will win an artist endorsement contract from Mapex Drums and will appear on the company’s official Artist Roster.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The &lt;i&gt;‘Supernova Custom Drums Snare World Tour’&lt;/i&gt; aims to give their Facebook Friends a chance to try out one of their custom made snare drums in their own homes/practice spaces/gigs, so they are sending one out to complete a very special world tour.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each person will have 7 days to play the snare before it gets sent on to another drummer. The Snare World Tour will all be coordinated on &lt;a href="http://facebook.com/supernovacustomdrumssnareworldtour"&gt;facebook.com/supernovacustomdrumssnareworldtour&lt;/a&gt;, with a map of where the snare drum has traveled to on their website at &lt;a href="http://supernovadrums.com/"&gt;Supernovadrums.com&lt;/a&gt;. All of the rules and the terms and conditions can be seen on both their main website and on the Snare World Tour Facebook page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Once 1,000 people have joined the Snare World Tour Facebook page, the snare will be let loose! The promotion is live now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Meinl is pleased to announce that the dates for their 2012 Meinl Drum Festival are June 23rd and June 24th, 2012. It will again be a two-day event and will be held on Meinl’s own premises in Gutenstetten, Germany.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“We have decided to again host a two-day event after we’ve had such huge success with the format a few years back,” explains Meinl’s festival coordinator, Norbert Saemann. “We have such a wide range of different artists and genres on our roster that it simpley would not be possible to do justice to all of them in just one day. Our festival has never just been an ordinary drum event,” continues Saemann. “No final decisions have been made yet as to which artists will be part of the line up. However, I’m speaking to several artists already about a possible participation. I will announce more news as soon as the line up begins to take shape.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mark your calendar: June 23 and 24, 2012 for the eighth Meinl Drum Festival.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Dave Weckl&lt;/b&gt; (born January 8, 1960) is a highly acclaimed jazz fusion drummer. Weckl attended Francis Howell High School in St. Charles, MO and graduated in 1978. He majored in jazz studies at the University of Bridgeport in Connecticut. Starting out on the New York fusion scene in the early 1980s, Weckl soon found himself working with artists such as Paul Simon, Madonna, George Benson, Michel Camilo, Robert Plant and Anthony Jackson. His most famous early work though, where his popularity blossomed, was with the Chick Corea Elektric Band from 1985 to 1991.&lt;br /&gt;
Weckl spent a total of seven years with Corea, during which he performed on numerous albums and also appeared with Corea's Akoustic Band. He augmented his work with Corea by continuing his session work and appearing often with the GRP All-Star Big Band. In addition, he recorded four albums in 1988 and 1989 with the Manhattan Jazz Quintet. Weckl has also released a series of instructional videotapes, and in 1990, he led his first solo date, Master Plan, for GRP. Heads Up followed in 1992, as well as Hard-Wired in 1994.&lt;br /&gt;
After leaving Corea's band, Weckl recorded and toured with guitarist Mike Stern.Under his own name, he has been the leader of ten recordings since 1990, seven of which as the Dave Weckl Band. Dave endorses Yamaha Drums, Sabian Cymbals and Vic Firth Drumsticks, all of whom he has assisted with the design of new products, such as Sabian's HHX Evolution and HHX Legacy cymbal lines.&lt;br /&gt;
Around 1996, his style and setup radically changed, in large part because of his studies with Freddie Gruber.&lt;br /&gt;
