Drumometer

The patented Drumometer was inspired by a drum clinic that Boo McAfee attended in Chicago during the 1975 Summer NAMM Show. As an impressionable nineteen year old, Boo listened while Barrett Deems proclaimed to be "The World's Fastest Drummer." Suddenly through the crowd echoed, "Oh Yeah! What machine did you use?" As Boo turned to his left, he quickly realized that the gentleman questioning Mr. Deems' claims was none other than the legendary Buddy Rich. Buddy was standing larger than life with his seventy's turtle neck shirt, wearing a large silver medallion and loosely gripping a lit cigarette as though he was undoubtedly the coolest man alive.
