Robert Batt

Born:

Started out with drums at 11 years old. I took a few lessons and eventually became quite inept. I gave it up at age 25. I had 3 weeks of piano lessons at 8 years old and the instructor told my mother that he hoped I was into sports as the only thing I could play was the radio. At age 50, I took a job as a Costco Piano Road Show salesperson. My job was to convert people that came to purchase a hundred pounds of cheese into piano buyers. With 11-hour days and a need to do something to prevent further insanity (read: previous drummer) I sat down to one of the many pianos on display and assaulted it for 8 to 9 hours per day...for 7 years
