Peter Criss Update

Peter Criss Update

Peter Criss has issued the following update:

"Sadly, I have just found out from my dear friend John Good, VP of DW Drums that my teacher, and old friend, Jim Chapin died on July 4th. I really loved the man, we have lost one of the greatest drum teachers. He always inspired me to play. I met Jim approximately in 1982. He taught me the Moeller technique which helps me to this day with my pullouts and control. He was a great man I am glad I had my time with him. We will miss you Jim. My love and sympathy go out to the Chapin Family."
