Episode 70 – Interview – Mike Johnston

Mike Johnston (of mikeslessons.com) is a person of many talents. He’s a tremendous communicator, a great player, a wonderful businessman, a superb teacher, and a heck of a nice guy. When you put all that together you have one of the most successful and busy music entrepreneurs of our time. He was kind enough to sit down with us for a chat about his web site, his teaching, and his business methods. We get deep into education with discussions about philosophies and techniques as well as concepts. We also talk about his new performance outlet entitled, “Man on the Moon”. As usual, before we finish we run Mike through the gauntlet that is the Drummer’s Weekly Groovecast Rorschach test!
