After the band's 1999 New Year's concert, where tens of thousands of fans spent the weekend listening to the band play for hours at a time, then their summer and fall 2000 tours, Jon and his partners in improv decided to take a break.

More....

Lighting The Flame With Rob Thomas (December 2006 Issue)
Taking over a high-profile drum seat is always a delicate situation for a musician. He must figure out his boundaries and freedoms within the material. Did Abe have freedom with Thomas’s songs?

More....



Nathan Followill
Southern Accents (July 2007 Issue)

Jim Fox
Riding Again With The James Gang (September 2006 Issue)

Josh Freese
In Demand (September 2005 Issue)
Looking at Josh Freese across a Starbucks table, it's hard to believe I've known him since he was eleven years old. Suddenly it struck me that he was then the same age that my son is now, and the comparison was mind-blowing. At eleven years old, Josh was already fiercely into his instrument. He had a career focus and a true commitment. When I met this kid, I wondered to myself if his ambition would last.

Ian Froman
Every Note Counts (September 2005 Issue)
