Episode 297, August 28, 2018. Two topics this week, we start off with Tommy talking about the FAN HQ Ace Frehley event. We are then joined by a very special guest drummer Andre LaBelle. Andre is currently playing drums for Robert Fleischman (formerly of Journey) and his new band, The Sky. Andre is also drumming for Flood The Engine, a band featuring Bill Leverty of Firehouse, Jimmy Kunes of Cactus and bass guitar legend, Keith Horne.

Having lived ten years in Los Angeles as a session player, Andre has been honored to work with many artists, such as KISS guitarist Vinnie Vincent, Richie Kotzen, Michael Monarch of SteppenWolf, Chris Holmes, and Buckcherry’s Josh Todd to name a few. He has also appeared in a variety of clinics and live settings including work on television and film.

Andre talks with us about his time working with Vinnie Vincent. He was with Vinnie after the Vinnie Vincent Invasion ended and Slaughter started. He talks about recording a album with Vinnie for Enigma Records.
