Expertise:  Strengths-I am good with all things music; the business end, the creative process, marketing, etc. Any questions related to drums and drumming I can give you a very clear answer. Weaknesses- My knowledge of tone is very limited (hey I'm a drummer).

Experience in the area
I've been a professional musician since I was in my teens and have seen pretty much everything there is to see. I was on the road for the better part of 10 years also. I won a Grammy this year (2007) for work I did on Ike Turner's "Rising With The Blues".
