Episode 13 - Dave Goodman (Independent/Educator)

Welcome to episode 13! I’m really, really pumped to be releasing this episode, which is a conversation with Dave Goodman, who’s a Sydney based drummer and teacher. I first heard Dave play before I even moved to Sydney. I went to see an early gig at the Side On Cafe in Annandale, and after a couple of beers decided I’d stay for the late gig as well. There was a drummer setting up a sonor kit and some amazing looking old K cymbals, and holy shit! Dave was like liquid around the kit, and he’ll give me shit for the comparison, but was the closest thing to Vinnie that I’d seen. I went to say thanks afterwards, and complimented him on his cymbal sound, and he couldn’t have been cooler, and pulled out both his newer K Constantimoples and the old Turkish K’s that he had and got me to play them so I could hear the similarities and differences. That really stuck in my mind, and set a precedent for how I try to act at gigs when someone comes up to say hi. I got to know Dave after that from working in drum shops around Sydney, and he’s always been a very articulate and deep thinking guy to chat to. So when he agreed to do the podcast I was equal parts nervous and excited, and started to get my research going on. Dave’s done some serious study in his time. From studying in Australia with Jim Piesse to travelling to New York to study with both Jim Chapin and Joe Morello, and to top it off writing 100000 words including 100 pages of transcription for his PHD on Tony Williams. I got to sit down with Dave at his house, and before I knew it we’d broken the 2 hour mark. Initially I was going to try to edit the episode down, but like usual I didn’t feel like I could do that without losing some absolute gems, so here it is in it’s entirety. Enjoy!
