- After studying with Al Miller for several years, Dom is invited to Al's house to meet a buddy. Upon arriving, Dom expects to surprise Al with some tickets to the Buddy Rich Big Band only to be stunned that Al's friend wasn't just a buddy...it was THE Buddy!
So sorry to hear about Dom's passing on 9/27/23. My game-changing moment was seeing Dom and Simon Phillips at a drum clinic in 1983 for Drum Headquarters in St. Louis. I recorded the clinic and it became my listening Playlist for the next 6 mos. I dissected and learned every one of Dom's grooves from that day. Dom, thank you for the inspiration - May you rest in peace.
I could sit and listen to Dom all day. A great parallel to the time I was seated next to Mike Clarke, Bill Ludwig and Pete Lockett at the Cape Breton Drum Festival. I was expecting to meet for dinner with a couple of drummer buddies only to be seated among legends.
Dom I love your drumming and this story whoa! This story is almost surreal, fabulous. Thank-you
This is the best story ever. Dom is a stud. Praise Buddy Rich!!
An incredible story. Beautifully told. I met Dom in 1994 in Wellington, New Zealand at a clinic. A great guy. Phenomenal drummer too.
Wow...what an incredible story! I can't even imagine what that was like. Thanks for sharing Dom!
What a great story, told in a really clear and captivating way. Thanks for sharing it Mr Famularo !
I really loved what Mr Famularo said said about learning to listen..
Sage words from a truly great drum communicator.
What a fantastic story. I actually heard this story in person from Dom..Studying with Dom has been my game changing moment..You wont meet a nicer more passionnatte and caring person than Dom, oh except maybe Mrs Dom, lol!!
I could watch Dom talk about anything
All Miller, Dom Famularo, Steve Gadd, and Buddy Rich all in one room? God to be a fly on that wall!
One of my game-changing moments was watching a Dom's clinic at the local music store back in 2005. I was 15 yrs old and blown away... and I'm not even a drummer xD the best clinic ever! He's coming back next week. I can't wait!! :D
well Dom You are right , fate is talking all the time, one must learn to listen, and ... I still admire Your very very inspiring enthusiasm
Exactly, my jaw is on floor listening to this, nevermind what it must have been like for Dom.
what an amazing story!!
I had Dereky Roddy sign my stick's, in 2010 at DrumTek, in Melbourne i miss those's day's, i have also seen Dom Famularo in 1998 i think i was 9 year's old at the time, this Drummer at DrumTek was with Virgil Donati, but now it's so hard these's day's, so many Awesome Drummer's out there, Baard Kolstad is from Norway, i really like Drum's, and yes i do play Drum's by Ear, & i wish i could teach people so bad, because i know how people feel, & i wish i could give that, great feeling that amaze's me but give them something back in return, but i can't read by note's i could only teach by ear, is it a good thing 2 teach by ear.
What a beautiful person Dom! So proud to have met him in my homeland in Kiev.
Wonderful story....
This is a great story of our American history. There was always something cool about Dom Famularo. I didn't know he was a Long Island cat! Buddy Rich was born in Brooklyn! The drumset is also an instrument which was created in America!
Fantastic story!
Dom, thanks for sharing, fascinating testimony.
Wow, great story!
Fantastic, just imagine it :-)
And I was very very fortunate to see Dom perform a clinic many many years ago in Cardiff. Nigel Cyril (local Cardiff drummer) supported him.
What an amazing story!
Absolutely love his enthusiasm!
Thats a hell of a story
absolutely incredible story!
Absolutely brilliant story!
This guy... man... I love this guy.
I have to say it again... I love this human being... What a positive force for life.

When Dom started to rattle off the names of the folks backstage, jeez, what an era to be growing up into drums :)
