PRESS/TOMMY VO
“I used to take drum lessons at a place called the Long Island Drum Center in Nyack in New York state. I found out that there was a band that was blowing up from around that area and that they [Coheed And Cambria] used to rehearse in Nyack. So I’m like, ‘Cool, a local band that’s making waves!’ And I’d watch them just getting bigger and bigger. This was around the time of In Keeping Secrets Of Silent Earth: 3 and I was really fascinated by them.
