Chris Stankee fills as Neil's drum tech

Chris Stankee, Neil's artist rep for Sabian Cymbals, was asked to fill in for Lorne Wheaton (Gump), Neil's drum tech, for the Moline and St. Paul shows. Gump was having an emergency appendectomy.

Chris wrote an article about the experience on Sabian.com, including some great pictures.

Here are the two parts of the story.

Part 1
