After managing Wally's Drums since January of '01, I was finally offered the opportunity to purchace the business. It has since been renamed Dave's Pro Drums and Percussion. A website is in the works, to be announced shortly. I continue to affect repairs and consult with Wally's in the percussion realm as they continue to point business my way. It's been a great run, and I hope to continue to serve the music community with quality instruments and professional percussive advice within this new form. Thanks to all who have been so supportive of the drum store for all these years, it wouldn't be here without you.

Arson is the probable cause for a fire that took out the property immediately to the right of the Drum store at 8pm 1/24/07. 50 foot flames. A link to the news story here. Dean Thurston and his students escaped before the water came in. Damage to the roof, and floor with some mildew but the building still stands. The 14+ fire engine response was spectacular - "the drum guy". Recently added the OMB's amazing performance of 'Malaguena' in 1994, for your listening pleasure
