Davemarks Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 (edited) Hey chaps - The institute have asked me to spread the word about a clinic we have coming up this week...rock-tastic, to say the least... Places are limited, so give them a call asap! Oh yeah and it's free.... [b]STOP PRESS! MARCO MENDOZA & TOMMY ALDRIDGE LAST-MINUTE VISIT TO INSTITUTE ON WEDNESDAY 19TH MARCH![/b] When Marco Mendoza calls up and says that he and Tommy Aldrige, his drum partner-in-crime with Whitesnake and Thin Lizzy are in town, and can they drop in to play exclusively for your students, you don’t say no! Marco is an extremely versatile and gifted musician who commands the highest respect from the bass community. His forte is definitely within the Rock genre, as his playing credits with Whitesnake, Thin Lizzy and Ted Nugent indicate, but he is a far more versatile musician than that. For example, when he’s not touring he can often be found playing local LA jazz clubs with Joey Heredia and Renato Neto! On Wednesday 19th March from 7:00pm to 9:00pm Marco and drum legend Tommy Aldridge will be gracing the Institute with their presence to host an extremely exclusive Whitesnake/Thin Lizzy rhythm section masterclass. This is a rare and very special opportunity and to celebrate we are making limited seats available to the public; call us now to reserve your place! UPCOMING EVENTS: • OPEN DAY Come and see for yourself why the Institute is rated as one of the world’s finest schools of modern music, on Saturday 17th May from 1pm to 4pm. • MAKE MODEL SECRET GIG Recently signed to EMI, Make Model will be making their way to the Institute to headline an exclusive gig at the Luminaire on Tuesday 8th April. Doors open at 8pm and entry is free. Contact us to place your name on to the guest list. If you are interested in attending these events, to enrol on a course or for further information, contact the Institute team directly on: ? 020 7328 0222 ?

terryblyth Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I was lucky to meet Marco about 18 months ago, and he really is very talented. As well as the rock chops he's a great jazz/latin player, and can do wonderful things with his voice while he's playing too! Well worth checking out, as it's likely to be intimate. And free!

7string Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Marco Mendoza was the reason for me switching to 6 string fretless after I heard his playing on the album "Screaming Blue Murder". The album Mendoza, Heredia, Neto Live in LA isn't too shabby either. Tommy Aldridge is a drumming legend, 'nuff said !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
