Welcome to 'Next Great Drummer'.

A weekly Reality Show, much like American Idol & America’s Top Model. The show will follow Eric Seats' (click here for bio) life as he auditions drummers from far and near in his quest to find "The Next Great Drummer". We are looking for drummers, both male and female from 16+ (the age range may change), with drum experience. Contestants can expect serious competition.

Those who succeed each round will have to consistently demonstrate improvement, quality technique and “stand-out” appeal. In a fierce head-to-head competition, drummers hit center stage to battle it out for the number one position, performing challenging pieces given to them by judges and show producers. With eliminations looming each week, drummers will need to stand out to win.

Drummers will be monitored to see if they are able to work well with others, follow directions, and pick up new music. Additionally, drummers will be challenged to perform for audiences from the following music genre’s in local pubs/clubs/social events: Jazz, Latin, Fusion, Rock, R&B, Blues, Gospel, Punk, Funk, Neo Soul and more.

According to the website, I'm too old.  I don't do contests anyway, so count me out.  If anyone from here competes, good luck to you.

I do find it ironic though that Guitar Center is a sponsor.  Wouldn't something like this conflict with their annual competition?  Then again, product/name placement does wonders for a business.  This is also gonna put Spaun drums out there as a contender.
When you've done your very best, do even better.
