He then proceeded to tell me about his story. Before this email, I had never been introduced to Jason but the depth of his story immediately inspired me. I wrote him back to say many things but among them was an invitation to host him and tell his story.   Drums as life preserver. A fitting title considering that drums happened to be one of a few aspects of his life that kept him sane during a major rehabilitation. I won\u2019t spoil anything but please listen closely to this and reflect upon it with your own experiences as a musician. Have they ever saved you from tremendously difficult times? Are they a dependable companion to you? If you answered yes, this will likely resonate deeply with you. You Will Hear About\u2026.   Today\u2019s episode goes back over twenty years when Jason began having crazy neurological symptoms throughout his career in STOMP until he was finally properly diagnosed and received major surgery. Why Should You Listen?   This episode has many lessons in it. Our lives can change immediately and this episode highlights this fact of life.     Follow Jason    Linktree Yummy Sounds Instagram Yummy Sounds YouTube Website   Follow \u2018Drumeo Gab\u2019   Instagram Facebook YouTube ","author_name":"Drumeo Gab Podcast","author_url":"http:\/\/drumeogab.libsyn.com\/podcast","html":"
