Home Actor John Dolmayan HD Instagram Photos and Wallpapers September 2023 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 .

John Dolmayan Instagram – If there’s a way to explain @vbecunninghvm drumming style I would have to say it’s similar to an earthquake. Deep , booming , and inescapable! He’s been a friend and inspiration since the first time I saw him play . Always humble , never seen without a massive smile , and when he sits behind the kit he unleashes hell ! Absolutely the closest to Bonham in our generation Abe mixes rhythm and power better than almost anyone. A fantastic father to his kids and a wonderful friend . So happy to have seen you play as many times as I have and seen the secret tattoos in person ! One of the most recognizable sounds from the first hit !
John Dolmayan Instagram – I was only in SOAD for a few months and we were playing one of my first shows with the band at the @thewhiskyagogo in Hollywood . @shavoodadjian came up to me excitedly and said @davelombardo was in the audience ! We were in disbelief! How did he know about us ? We were just a local band playing a local show , what would attract one of the best drummers of all time and the man responsible for one of my favorite albums , South of Heaven ! To make everything more surreal he complimented us after the show and said he was a fan of the band and that he would love to jam with us sometime. The jam actually happened but partially out of respect and mostly out of nervousness I didn’t go and just let the rest of the band experience jamming with Dave. Since those days we became friends , Dave is by far one of the nicest and fan appreciative people I know. Never an unkind word , always a fan of music with no pretentiousness. He drove two hours to see an unsigned band play a show because we incorporated eastern rhythmic themes in our style and that was something that interested him . Dave is one of the best to have picked up the sticks but he never forgot his love for drums and is always looking for inspiration irrespective of where it comes from. He is a gift and still inspires all of us ,his fans.
