Arizona Bay Special Guest Star -

Jim Bestios (AKA Ufip Man)

Jim became the first guest for ages after I saw some videos of him playing on Youtube. He is from Chicago and owns his own music store. He is also one of the few dealers in the USA to sell UFIP cymbals (very rare and exclusive cymbals). If you click the Illinois state flag above it will take you to his My Space site.

One of the aforementioned UFIP cymbals. I once played a set with a DW drum kit - gasp! It was percussion pornography....

Fairly strange arrangement for the drumkit he uses for his You Tube stuff. Of note are the Tama Octobans (the small tube-like drums to the upper left of the kit) - they look well cool in any setting.

Here's the latest toy: a carbon fibre kit. Carbon Fibre kits sound superb but are notoriously expensive. Needs a few more toms I think.
