The Holy F#ck Awards!

It's been a while since I have sat down and written a story of my own. Things have been growing so fast and we are very appreciative of all the support and loyalty. This site has taken on a life of it's own! and it's hard to find the time…

Well, it's time I wrote about something I've been thinking for a while and thats the "SickDrummer.com Holy F#ck Awards". Starting next year, we will be giving away awards for the most impressive live performances we have actually attended. There are a few staff members now going to shows, filming/interviewing for us, and we see tons of crazy drumming. I want to start it this year with performances only I have seen.  The awards will be given away throughout the year, not just at year end. If we see one, we award one.

It was a great year for metal in Rochester and I was able to see all kinds of shows. There are still a few more coming up, but I am going to start the process right now and name the first 6 drummers to receive a SickDrummer.com Holy F#ck Award.

  1. Tom Ales of Emeth – Club Underground – Hamilton, Ontario Canada
  2. Shannon Lucas of Black Dahlia Murder – Metal Blade 25th Tour
  3. Drew Button of Lye By Mistake – Penny Arcade – Rochester
  4. Darren Cesca with Burn In Silence – Montage Music Hall – Rochester
  5. Mike Smith of Suffocation – Penny Arcade – Rochester
  6. Navene Koperweis of Animosity – Montage Music Hall – Rochester

I have seen many shows this year and had a great time at all of them.  All of the guys I have seen this year are sick, but these 6 performances were unusually outstanding and are in no particular order of sickness!
