NAMM’S INTERNATIONAL FASTEST DRUMMER CONTEST
DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO BE NAMM’S
INTERNATIONAL FASTEST DRUMMER??


July 1, 2003 -- NAMM International announces its quest to find the “World’s Fastest Drummer.” This highly charged interactive event is a feature at this year’s Summer NAMM Show in Music City U.S.A., Nashville, TN. The contest consisting of two categories, Fastest Hands and Fastest Feet will be held each day in NAMM’S Pro Lighting and Audio Floor at Gaylord Entertainment Arena. Starting at 11:00am Friday, July 18th and continuing through Saturday until 5.00pm, the top ten Fastest Hands and top ten Fastest Feet will compete in a “Finals Battle” of both categories held Sunday, July 20th.

Included in this year’s event are technical demonstrations, insight sessions and appearances by WFD Champions Mike Mangini, Art Verdi, Johnny Rabb, Tim Waterson and Jotan Afanador. “To see these guys go at it, full throttle, smooth as silk with their hands and feet moving over 18 times per second for an entire minute is simply an amazing work of technical proficiency.” Says Boo McAfee, co-founder of Extreme Sport Drumming.

The NAMM International Fastest Drummer Contest is sponsored by THEMUSICEDGE.COM, NAMM’s new teen promotional initiative and is open to everyone attending this year’s Summer NAMM Show. All contestants for both Hands and Feet Competition, will be scored on playing single strokes (no bounces, presses or buzz) for ONE MINUTE and recorded by the Drumometer (www.drumometer.com).

Grand-Prizes for this year’s contest include: two Mapex drum-sets, a year supply of ProMark Drum Sticks (with winner’s name), two sets of MEINL Cymbals, AXIS LongBoard ‘A’ Double Pedal and 50 REMO Drum Heads.

Contestants should sign in at NAMM International Fastest Drummer Contest stage area located in The Pro Lighting and Audio Floor starting the morning of Friday, July. 18th.

MAY THE FASTEST DRUMMER WIN!!!!!!!
