SKF NOTE: Sabian Cymbal’s Deal Support Program including Roy Burns as drum clinician. Seems like a win-win for drum retailers.

Based on what I’ve read, Burns said he entered into this deal with Sabian Cymbal Founder Bob Zildjian in or around 1984, to both help the new cymbal company and to help his own new Aquarian drumhead and accessories company.

I attended a Burns drum clinic in Moline, IL in 1974 and thoroughly enjoyed it. The man could play! Many years later I discovered I had taped that clinic and still had the cassette, which I digitized and have posted on my blog.
