    I've been friends with Glenn since 1977. Drove him to his first bar band audition and have followed him ever since. He's a great drummer, who's come a long way from the bar days. He was always a beast, beating the hell out of his drums with all his might. He spent a fortune on sticks, heads, and cymbals, because he broke them all the time! Only one drumsticks he didn't break were Teflon! He bent the shit out of them!! I've been so proud to call him friend.

    I was in a band called Minddrive in the early to mid 90s. We had the honor of opening for Nuclear Assault in Syracuse NY. Glenn was totally cool, down to earth and brought the house down with his playing. He hit everything with such brute force and authority to where my deaf aunt in Omaha heard him!

    I love Nuclear Assault ever since hearing them on a live show broadcast on the radio in England at the Hammersmith Odeon circa 1986, it was just a pure wall of thick noise, I immediately thought they were great. I was right, the albums were full of excellent songs, I think of them as the Ramones of heavy metal

  • @richardrenner3974

    This a great format for a drummer interview; he doesn't tell drumming influence but plays the beat and sings with it to tell you which part of the song he's at. He's cool and chill as fuck, and a great, hard player. All drum interviews should be done like this.
