About The Teacher
​Name : Mike Glozier

First time playing drums : September 1998.

Why drums? : I took keyboard lessons as a kid (and was horrendous at it). Saw a drum kit, decided that was the coolest thing ever. 

​First drum kit : Remo Bravo in gloss black with Zildjian ZBT cymbals. Was mega.
Favourite gig : 15,000 person crowd with a band I'd never met. Given the setlist 10min before I went on (video clip to left).
Favourite gig : 15,000 person crowd with a band I'd never met. Given the setlist 10min before I went on (video clip above).
Favourite recording session : Recording beats for Venetian Snares (they ended up on a record with John Frusciante from the Red Hot Chili Peppers).

​First song learnt : Every song off the Red Hot Chili Peppers BSSM and Californication albums. And Led Zeppelin II and IV.
First big break : Was totally accidental. I made a couple of YouTube videos on a old handycam, just for mates. Suddenly my heroes started sending messages - Vsnares, Meshell Ndegeocello, and ended up playing on a project from Stef from the Deftones.

​Lessons taught : Somewhere between 5,000-6,000 (I lost count).
