Our favorite drummer appears on the inside cover of the December issue of Modern Drummer in a Ludwig ad. :)

You're an aspiring drummer, too?
How old was that last signature? I mean, really?

Oh. Well, my parents can relate, then.

It looks like a bunch of videos just went up on YouTube of Bermuda playing a gig with one of his OTHER bands. And here's one of them.

Thats wicked stuff! The guitarist looks like my twin, we're like identical. Very awesome guitar chops.
What a racket they're makin', Jack, they keep me up at night playin' their electric guitars!!

Since when has Bermuda played for other bands? Was this a recent thing to help pay the rent?

Bermuda has been playing drums with other bands for a while. Like, since before I Al I think.

On a related note, I think I love Idle Hands.

these have all been posted before, but here's an interview where Bermuda discusses his non-Al-related work.

And here's one that mentions the job he had at Westwood One.

Fun fact: Steve Jay's friend Pete Gallagher (aka Zuie from Ak & Zuie) also drums for Idle Hands. Which I guess makes sense; it wouldn't be fair to expect Idle Hands to turn down gigs just because Jon is off on the road with Al.
