Home Actor John Dolmayan HD Photos and Wallpapers September 2023 John Dolmayan Instagram - If there’s a way to explain @vbecunninghvm drumming style I would have to say it’s similar to an earthquake.

John Dolmayan Instagram – In 1998 system went on our first ever tour , 2 months in the states and ending in a 2 month run in Europe with the incomparable Slayer . Broken down RVs , showering after Serj ( clogged drain every time) , sleeping next to Shavo in the top of the RVs crawl space . Eating for free whenever possible as we were all broke . It was the best ! I first met @paulbostaphofficial at the NAMM show . This was just before our tour and we were talking to all the drum companies about endorsements ( I received none ). Walking down an aisle was Paul , by himself and with a backpack on his shoulder . We were introduced and he gave me some advice spending a good 30 min with me .  This is an example of who Paul is , he didn’t know me from a hole in the ground but he took time to take me under his wing .Months later we were on tour ,I busted through my kick drum . Sako  had both hands on top of his head and was just looking at my kick pedal which had gone through my kick drum head. All of a sudden Paul appeared on stage with a drum key on a drill bit and was helping us takeoff the drum head. He was the headliner, and he was on stage helping the opener change his drum head .I’ll never forget the many acts of kindness that Paul and the wonderful crew and band of slayer showed us. We were in Europe we didn’t have $.10 to our name we were staying in the shittiest hotels if we were lucky enough to get one (usually we just stayed in our bus in the middle of a field somewhere we were showering at the venue )At nights we were playing 20 or 30 minute sets and I’d be sweating ,boiling because we couldn’t afford a fan and then one day Paul had gone and purchased a fan for me because he knew I lacked the funds to get it . Slayer gave us advice, but more than anything they spent time with us watched us play every night. Paul made sure that if I ever needed anything I had it he is a ripping drummer but more important is his character. Paul has had an incredible career playing for some of the best bands on the planet . Hi is an enormously talented drummer , with amazing feel and technique.. I want to take this opportunity to thank him for his many acts of kindness !
John Dolmayan Instagram – We met for the first time during Ozzfest 99 ( my personal favorite of the 4 times we were on Ozzfest) . Zombie was co headlining and system was opening the main stage (1pm) , usually playing to 1500 people and a mostly empty first 70 rows. We had met so many inspiring musicians in 98/99 and @johntempesta was one of them. Almost immediately we became lifelong friends and John would allow me to watch from behind his kit as he played his set nearly every night. Not only is he a phenomenal drummer and incredibly versatile (playing almost any style he wants )but John is a humble and open person. I’ve never seen him even slightly upset , he always has a smile on his face and an excitement to play and his attitude is infectious. Like any family member, anytime we see each other we pick up exactly where we left off. I remember vividly that both of our kits were set up next to each other backstage at Ozzfest 2002 . We happened to be together and were checking our kits to make sure everything was in order when we spontaneously went into a double drummer drum solo . We went back and forth , trying to escalate the technique and feel of our solos using each others talent as inspiration to out do each other on the next phrasing . Before we knew it there were a hundred or so techs , guests , and security watching the impromptu show behind the show happening 100feet away. I wish my friend Mike ( he taped it ) wasn’t such a damn stoner and lost the tape! Drummers like John make me want to be a better drummer and are the fuel for learning and improving. I’ve learned much from him over the years both in being a better drummer and a better human being . Recently Dave , John , and I went to dinner and it was such a fun time . Reminiscing and laughing , friends enjoying life. I can’t believe I get to hang out with the drummers who inspired me in my formative years and who continue to do so today ! I hope there are kids out there who are equally inspired by what I do , one day the baton will pass from us to you and so on and so on .
