(to name only a few)

Drumming and performing in LA, Hollywood, Malibu, Santa Barbara, San Fransisco. Up and down sunset strip, at the Viper rm, Whiskey, Roxy, House of Blues and the world famous Mint Recording Studios allowed Rob to be apart of many projects (and parties). Giving him the greatest lessons a drummer/artist could learn.

 Working with such drummers as Kenny Aronoff, Dave Abbruzzeeze, Matt Sorrum, Charlie Drayton, Alvino Bennett, Vince Wilburn Jr, Phil Jones, Tony Thompson and many more, gave Rob a first hand look at the best in the world of drummers and drumming.

( which means he finally learned how to play drums )
