Re: Ringo Starr
How many of us have bobbed their head back & forth playing a fun drum part? you can thank Ringo for that
He was one of the first singing drummers
Like con struct posted would you have played "Come Together" like Ringo?me either
or come up with a solo like Ringo played on "Golden Slumbers"?I didn't. think so LOL
How many drummers do you know that have had successful solo careers in Rock?Don't. worry I'll wait
Joking aside Ringo is a total original and that's what set him apart from all the other drummers when the Beatles hired him & why he is still on the scene today.
Not only that but the Cat is cool you know you cool when you're hanging out with Smokey Robinson @ the Grammy's

Once again thanks. You've totally crystalized this subject down to it's most basic truisms.
Re: Ringo Starr
Ringo brought those great songs that so many people love to life. Creativity, personality, humbleness..these words all come to mind when I think of Ringo. When you listen to these songs you're not thinking about who's playing drums, and in my opinion thats how it SHOULD be. Ringo's more than a good drummer he's a great MUSICIAN.

Re: Ringo Starr
Neither Gadd nor Vinnie would be so disrespectful of Ringo.....
Come Together is my favorite Beatles tune right now!
Re: Ringo Starr
Another late-comer to this party. This is my second post, so it's appropriate that it's about the drummer who first peaked my interest in drumming and has had more influence on my drumming than any other:
Sometime between 8-10 yrs of age I started getting into the very early Beatles stuff. Then someone gave me 'Revolver' (mid 70s). Wow! Keep in mind that by this stage I only owned a best of the Shadows, Beach Boys and the first couple of Beatles albums. The track that is responsible for my fascination with drumming is "Tomorrow Never Knows". Not a difficult drum track, but I just couldn't get enough of the off-beat tom accents Ringo played. I got some sticks (not drum sticks, but shortened garden stakes) and practiced on pots and pans until I could get that right (much to the exasperation of my mother who patiently listened to the Beatles accompanied by an assortment of her cookware for hours on end). That's where it all started for me!
The other thing that we need to remember about Ringo is that he played in a band that was rewriting the rule book. There were so many things they did that noone else had done and they covered so much ground musically. Imagine the creativity, intuition and feel for music that was needed to develop drum parts for all of this?
One of the many songs (for me at least) that demonstrate Ringo's skill is Helter Skelter. Again, not a difficult drum track, but look at how he made his kit sound - especially the cymbals! Overdrive all the way, without peppering the music with drum fills and acrobatics. Amazing!
The other drummer who really influenced me is Brian Bennett (Shadows drummer for most of the 60s). No doubt my mother still cringes whenever she hears "Rise and fall of Flingel Bunt" - another song that got my pre-pubescent kettle & pan treatment. For an excellent example of Brian's ability to pay melodic drum parts, listen to "Slaughter on 10th Street". Great stuff!

Re: Ringo Starr - why did he play a right handed kit ?
Hi I'm new here. I've been a fan of Ringo's and the Beatles since the 60's. Even though I was only 4 at the time I do remember their first Ed Sullivan appearance. Anyway, I got the complete set of re-mastered CD's for Christmas and have been reading everything I can on the hows and why's of the songs. I read that Ringo felt held back as far as rolls and fills because he was a left handed person "Forced" his words to play a right handed kit. I'm a left handed drummer. I'm completely lost on a right handed kit. I'm very left handed. To the point I can't play Rock Band unless I could rearrange the kit. When I sit in on a jam session I need to at least switch the snare, HH, and floor tom. So being as he was in the premier band of all time, why was he forced to play right handed? There is no such thing as a right handed or left handed drum set, it's all in the way you set them up. It's not like a guitar. I'm sure he could have had anything he wanted after they hit the big time.
When I was a regular at the local jam sessions I got the nick name lefty Dave because I appeared to be the only Left handed drummer in a sea of right handed drummers. Because of that I always got there first and set up my kit for the night.
So anyway, I'd like to hear feedback as to why Ringo didn't just set up his kit left handed?
Thanks, Dave Premier 5 piece acoustic kit, Alesis DM Pro electronic kit
Re: Ringo Starr
When we first started, they basically went John and Paul's way because they were the writers and they would say, "This is the song," and I would play as creatively as I could. Sometimes I would have three people telling me how to do it. They were saying playing this like on that track. I'm saying, "For Christ's sake, there are two drummers there." They could never hear that, you know. You'd have to have four arms to do half the stuff they wanted me to do.A quote from Paul:
We always gave Ringo direction on every single number. It was usually very controlled. Whoever had written the song, John for instance, would say, "I want this." Obviously, a lot of things came out of what Ringo was playing, but we would always control it.Can't say how often "control" meant saying, "Yes, I like that". I agree, the drum parts on a number of songs on Abbey Road are great. Ringo always has me thinking "how did he think of that?" Things like Getting Better and Ticket to Ride etc etc
Re: Ringo Starr
Love Ringo.............. for all the tasty tracks,I always Enjoy when the guys im playing with want to do a Beatles tune.One song that for me is a real pain,cause the time is SOOOO pure Is Something,Georges tune...Never gave it much thought as it being HARD,till i played it....Ringo, WAS AND IS SOMETHING........
Re: Ringo Starr - why did he play a right handed kit ?
I'm sure most of the lefties play right handed, just because the weak right hand is much better trained this way. Then starting fills with the left - ending right or left - no problem - see Ringo.
For most drummers - not already arrived at the stardom as Phil Collins and Ian Paice - it's just impossible to sit in on a jam without changing everything - what a mess and arrogance that would be, lol.
Re: Ringo Starr - why did he play a right handed kit ?

Re: Ringo Starr on tour this summer with all starrs
Ringo and the All Starrs are coming to my home town of Lancaster PA in July. I'd like to see him even though the tickets are kind of steep $150.00. To those who have seen him on tour does he play the drums much? That's what I really want to see. I am also going to see a Beatles tribute band in April, called 1964. From clips on youtube I hear they are pretty good. Thanks, Spiney-Dave
Re: Ringo Starr
I saw him last July and will see him this July again. he plays about 1/3 of the time. And it depends on his show. He has a new Album out so its hard to tell, but he will play some.
Tickets here, Tampa Florida, are about 60 bucks. Why are they costing you so much.? Here is the band, and tickets go on sale here March 19th.

It's the venue, a place called American Music Theater. I'll have to call them on it and see what they say. The tickets go on sale today March 16th. Tickets are $100, 135, and $150. Same lineup that you show. They seem to really be inflating the prices. Thanks, Dave
Re: Ringo Starr
I just checked the ticket prices through Ticketmaster and the tickets for Lancaster at the American Music Theater are priced about 1/3 to 2X higher than all the other venues including Radio City Music Hall. AMT is the only place you can buy the tickets for Lancaster, Ticketmaster isn't handling them so maybe that is why. I am going to call them on it tomorrow before I but tickets. Dave

79.00 were too far away to even bother and 59.00 was the back row so Ringo has priced me out. It's a shame that, although not a current star, but still popular that the avg. Joe like me can't afford to see him once a year. Oh well.

Ben Harper and Relentless7 have just finished recording their follow-up to 2009s White Lies For Dark Times. Titled Give Till Its Gone, the self-produced album will be out in the fall and features some high-profile guests. Not only are we excited about the songs, but Ringo Starr is playing on one of the songs and thats just a huge deal for us. And Jackson Browne is singing in the background of one of the songs, Harper told a handful of media during a Canadian teleconference.

Re: Ringo Starr
Some great quotes on Ringo from his fellow Beatles:
"We loved him. And we just thought he was the very best drummer we'd ever seen. And we wanted him in the group. We were big fans of his." - Paul McCartney, Larry King Interview
"Ringo's got the best back beat I've ever heard and he can play great 24-hours a day." -George Harrison
"He was quite simply the heart of the Beatles." – John Lennon
"Playing without Ringo is like driving a car on three wheels." - George Harrison
Other quotes about Ringo:
"Before Ringo, drum stars were measured by their soloing ability and virtuosity. Ringo's popularity brought forth a new paradigm in how the public saw drummers. We started to see the drummer as an equal participant in the compositional aspect. One of Ringo's great qualities was that he composed unique, stylistic drum parts for The Beatles songs. His parts are so signature to the songs that you can listen to a Ringo drum part without the rest of the music and still identify the song." - Drummer Steve Smith
"Starr is vastly underrated. The drum fills on the song "A Day in the Life" are very complex things. You could take a great drummer today and say, 'I want it like that.' He wouldn't know what to do." - Drummer Phil Collins
"He's got tremendous feel. He always helped us to hit the right tempo for a song, and gave it that support-that rock-solid back-beat-that made the recording of all The Beatles' songs that much easier." - George Martin
Kenny Arnoff -- "I consider him one of the greatest innovators of rock drumming and believe that he has been one of the greatest influences on rock drumming today... Ringo has influenced drummers more than they will ever realize or admit. Ringo laid down the fundamental rock beat that drummers are playing today and they probably don't even realize it. (Modern Drummer,Oct. 1987) . . Ringo always approached the song more like a songwriter than a drummer. He always served the music." (Modern Drummer, Dec. 1987)
George Martin -- "Ringo always got and still gets a unique sound out of his drums, as sound as distinctive as his voice. ... Ringo gets a looser deeper sound out of his drums that is unique. ...This detailed attention to the tone of his drums is one of the reasons for Ringo's brilliance. Another is that although Ringo does not keep time with a metronome accuracy, he has unrivaled feel for a song. If his timing fluctuates, it invariably does so in the right place at the right time, keep the right atmosphere going on the track and give it a rock solid foundation. This held true for every single Beatles number Richie played ... Ringo also was a great tom tom player." ( Summer of Love, 1994)
Peter Blake -- "Ringo is one of the most important drummers of the 20th century. While he hasn't got any technique to speak of, he realizes how important It is for a song to feel good. His feel is absolutely tremendous. He got some great sounds on the Beatles records. It wasn't all production and microphones, a lot of it was down to the way he tuned them. ... He has tremendous basic ability. Obviously there were people playing in a straight-forward manner before him, but he had a definite feel and he changed pop drumming around. He changed the sound from hat of the high-pitched jazz drummers. I think he's tremendous." (Speaking Words of Wisdom)
Tim Riley -- "Ringo wanted to serve the songs rather than show off. As a song writer's drummer, Ringo was the type of musician who could follow instructions as he completed the overall sound. His commitment to the music was bigger than his ego." ( Tell Me Why, 1988)
Kenny Aronoff -- "He consistently came up with new ideas that always seemed perfect for the song, but it wasn't just a matter of him picking a basic beat for a song, because lots of drummers could do that. Ringo definitely had the right kind of personality and creative ideas for The Beatles music. You will rarely find a Beatles song without something noticeable that Ringo played or didn't play." (Modern Drummer magazine, Oct. 1987)
Al Kooper -- "Sgt. Pepper was the album that changed drumming more than anything else. Before that album, drum fills in rock and roll were pretty rudimentary, all much the same, and this record had what I call space fills where they would leave a tremendous amount of air. It was most appealing to me musically and the sound of the drums got much better. What I had to figure out now was what am I going to do to get drums to sound like that." (Summer of Love by George Martin, 1994)
Martin Torgoff -- "If I could think of a single passage in which Ringo's quintessential style as a drummer is most identifiable, it could well be something as, say, the drumming behind George's guitar solo in Paul's "Let It Be" after the organ trails off. There, in simple 4-4 time, Ringo comes in with a trademark thump of his base drum, clear tattering snare, and his insistent smashing of the high hat, unvarying, unyielding, yet distinctively Ringo, and you can't help but smile not for its banality but because it is so perfectly adequate and because one can readily envision Ringo behind his kit as he plays, his beringed fingers clutching his sticks, swaying beatifically from side to side as he gets on with his work, blinking those astonishingly saturnine blue eyes." (The Compleat Beatles, 1985)
Max Weinberg -- "More than any other drummer, Ringo Starr changed my life. The impact and memory of that band on Ed Sullivan Show in 1964 will never leave me. I can still see Ringo in the back moving that beat with his whole body, his right hand swinging off his sock cymbal while his left hand pounds the snare. He was fantastic, but I think what got to me the most was his smile. I knew he was having the time of his life." (The Big Beat, 1984)
Martin Torgoff -- "As a drummer, he was a natural, purely intuitive, remarkably tasteful, spirited, but always basic, a proponent of less is more school of minimal drumming. ...He had an uncanny understanding of John's rhythm and Paul's base line. Time and again, the Beatles rode his backbeat to glory. Precisely because he never overstated a beat, or over accented a phrase (unless it was appropriate) he managed to get more mileage out of his licks than most drummers could ever dream of. The results were extraordinary." (The Compleat Beatles, 1985)
Don Was -- "Ringo's drums are one of the greatest things you can have on a record."
Dave Ballinger -- "Technically brilliant drummers do not necessary make good rock drummers. ...You don't have to be a technical Buddy Rich type drummer, you just need to be inventive. He (Ringo) did things I would never have thought of doing." (interview for Speaking Words of Wisdom)
Ian Fraser Kilmister of Motorhead- "Ringo's the most underrated drummer in the history of rock and roll."
Yoko Ono - "Ringo is the most underrated drummer in the industry! His drumming is like life—it gives you the most solid beat. When he drummed on my Yoko Ono Plastic Ono Band album, I was totally amazed that he had no difficulty in following the very complex improvisational vocals I did – again, no overdubs. I think his incredible drumming was what made so many great Beatles songs possible. We thank you, Ringo!"
Don Was - "He puts the fills in the same place a guitarist would. He's not sitting there counting. He's playing to the vocal."
To this day, producers direct studio drummers to "play like Ringo." Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith sums it up thusly: "The greatest thing a drummer can contribute to a recorded song is the feel of it, and every Beatles song feels great."
Ringo "doesn't dazzle with flashy technique and pyrotechnics," says The Cars' lead guitarist, Elliot Easton. "What he does is so much more elusive and difficult: He plays songs on the drums. Anybody who has sat down behind a drum kit in the last 45 years owes him."
The Police's Stewart Copeland - "Ringo is the leader in the education for all young drummers of style over flash, always playing the right things rather than a lot of things."
Mostly Ringo has made a living out of being an ex-Beatle. Unfortunately, that legacy has disregarded his musical accomplishments. "He's an underrated cat, really underrated as a drummer," says Dr. John, a.k.a. Mac Rebennac, a member of the All-Starr Band Ringo recruited for last summer's U.S. tour--his first ever and the first by a Beatle since Paul brought Wings to America in 1976.
Fellow All-Starr member Nils Lofgren, from Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band, echoes Dr. John's praise. "It's not often I can lend my heart and soul to someone else's thing," Nils says. "But if there's someone you hit it off with and have a good feeling about, you hang on to that. And Ringo's that type of guy."
Re: Ringo Starr
Emmy winning writer Bill Stainton: Imagine youre a drummer in the 60s. Most rock and roll drumming is simple, bubblegum stuff. Then somebodysay, John Lennonstarts shaking things up by bringing in songs like She Said, She Said; Strawberry Fields Forever; and A Day In The Life. Songs for which there is simply no precedent in rock history. You then, as the drummer, come up with drum parts that are not just good, but so astonishingly innovative that its all but impossible to imagine the songs played any other way!
Yes, but I can play anything Ringo played, the detractors will say. To which I reply, So can I. I can also sit down at my computer and retype Hamlet, but that doesnt make me Shakespeare. I mean, whos the real artist here: the guy who can copy something note for note, or the guy who came up with it in the first place?
Re: Ringo Starr
Black Crowes drummer Steve Gorman gives nice props to Ringo Starr
Black Crowes drummer Steve Gorman used his column on the group's website to give some unabashed praise to fellow drummer Ringo Starr. Here are his comments, which Gorman graciously allowed us to reprint (and thanks to Allen Stearns for telling us about this):
Hey Steve,
Here's my question- I've recently been playing The Beatles: Rock Band and I'm realizing more now just how different Ringo was as a drummer.
His playing is pretty simple and very connected to the songs, yet less intuitive than a lot of subsequent rock drummers.
I can't really put my finger on why, but learning the tunes is actually kinda difficult.
Any thoughts?
San Francisco, CA
Long time fan. Saw you guys with Joan Jett and Aerosmith in Miami in 1990, I think.
First things first – I don't remember ever having played a show in Miami with Aerosmith and Joan Jett.
We certainly did some shows with Aerosmith in 1990, but none were anywhere near Miami.
And, as much as we do in fact love rock n' roll, we never were party to anyone putting another dime in any jukebox, baby, either.
So, with that cleared up, let's move on:
Ringo Starr's drumming is infallible, untouchable, and he is quite simply the greatest drummer in the history of rock n roll music.
So, there's that.
With this in mind, it would stand to reason that you might struggle to learn his parts, even on so rudimentary a level as Rock Band provides. I will resist the urge to write an endless screed about why Ringo's drumming is beyond reproach and instead offer a quick "Q and A" to examine your specific points.
Q) Was Ringo actually "different as a drummer"?
A) Was Magic Johnson "different as a point guard"? Was Frank Lloyd Wright "different as an architect"? You bet your ass. As much as people try to disparage Ringo's playing, no one ever seems to have a suggestion as to what drummer would have made those recordings better. And that's because there was not, is not, and never will be, a drummer more perfectly suited for the Beatles.
Q) Was his playing "pretty simple and connected to the songs"?
A) If by "pretty simple", you mean "pretty perfect" and if by "connected to the songs", you mean, "integral to the execution of these rock n' roll masterpieces", then the answer is a resounding YES.
Q) Was Ringo "less intuitive" than a lot of subsequent rock drummers?
A) Absolutely not. Few if any drummers in rock history have been more intuitive. Ringo understood exactly what every song needed to have, and bear in mind he was working with not one, but three songwriters.
Q) Any thoughts?
A) Yes. Don't argue with me about this. I know what I know.
I love John Bonham, Charlie Watts, Phil Rudd, and the nutjob from Wilco (and about a million other drummers) as much as anyone could. They are all perfect for their bands. They are all irreplaceable. But Ringo was in THE BEATLES.
Check the scoreboard.
Ringo wins.

Re: Ringo Starr
Elvis Costello - "Ringo Starr played the drums with an incredibly unique feel that nobody can really copy, although many fine drummers have tried and failed."
KING: Yoko, what makes Ringo Starr special?
ONO: I think that with somebody who is so incredible and talented, I think he had this thing about just being cooperative when he was in the band. In other words, he didn't try to say, me, me, me, I'm the star. He was just playing with the other people in the band. There was a peacefulness and lovingness about it. He was always like that. So, I think that's something that was very special in those groups of people in the '60s, where everybody was saying, me, me, you know. (Larry King 2008 Interview)

Re: Ringo Starr
Re: Ringo Starr
Some quotes from Ringo from various interviews, talking about his drumming:
What makes a great drum part?
RS: The fill is the art of the drummer, that happens in the moment. That's always been the way with me. I can't think about it. I don't play drum parts. I have no idea how it's gonna turn out. I don't say, "Oh, 16 bars in I'll do that." I have no idea at all what I'm going to do, it just happens.
Your drum work was not only tight but could be very adventurous. The ending of "Strawberry Fields" showcases some wild off-the-wall tribal drumming. Was that work you enjoyed as well?
RS: You know, what you're talking about just happens. There was no plan for that. I can play basic patterns, and the freedom is the fills. To move it to where you can put it in a different space as a drummer, especially with The Beatles only came at the end, because the songs were so set up that there was two verses, a chorus, a verse, a middle eight and a chorus and something like that. Then at the end we'd all be allowed to blow our tops, which we did. And we still did that under three minutes (laughs).
You truly blossomed as a drummer on Revolver. Did the vast improvement in sound inspire you?
RS: Yeah. Also I think we decided we could finally hear the bass drum on our records. If you listen to the early ones, there's no sign of the bass drum, just like the snare and cymbals. So the recordings were getting better and you would play differently because you could hear it.
Source: Goldmine May 2008 Interview
O: Over the years, you haven't recieved the same kind of public respect and reverence for your musical skills that, say, Charlie Watts or the late Keith Moon get. Yet other musicians, particularly drummers, hold you in high regard. Does that lack of respect bother you?
R: Not any more. In the early days, that was going around. People heard that I wasn't good in '62 and '64 and kind of kept along with that. But that's okay, because it's not up to them. I have to realize, in the end, that I know I'm a good player. That's what's important, and that other musicians think I'm a good player.
Source: 1989 Interview by Gary Graff
Which drummers turned you on as a kid?
"You know, no drummer really turned me on at the beginning. I was in hospital with TB, and they sent me out of Liverpool to a place called Heswall, where they used to have this big greenhouse for children, so we could breathe and get well, cos there's not a lot of oxygen in Liverpool. Oh! [Groans and mimes a headline] 'Ringo says there's no oxygen in Liverpool.' Anyway a woman came once a week with instruments for us to play, tambourines, maracas, little snare drums with one stick. She'd put this huge music sheet up, she'd point to the yellow and you'd hit the drum, she'd point to the red and you shook the maraca. It was all pretty primitive but it kept us entertained. I was in there for a year, so they used to make you do things just to keep your spirits up, I suppose. And that's where I started, in the hospital with this one drum.
"And I decided that next time she came, if I didn't get a drum I wouldn't play. That's where the dream started. Then I would walk around Liverpool, to the music stores, and I would just look at the drums, I was never interested in the other instruments at all. My grandparents who played mandolin and banjo gave me them, and I'd no interest; my grandad bought me a harmonica, I had no interest. We had a piano at home that I used to walk on. But a lot of people sang around that piano, and people would bring instruments to the parties when I was growing up. There'd always be a harmonica player, banjo player, guitar. It was a party town.
"And I just always wanted to drum. I used to make little kits, mainly a snare drum and a tom-tom out of biscuit tins, and then I bought a huge bass drum for 30 bob, I used to whack that. Then I was 18 and my stepfather, he was from Romford, Essex, he went down there for a funeral or something and found this drumkit for me for 12 quid, and brought it back. That's how it started. A month later I was in a band, cos I had the instrument."
You were in Rory Storm & The Hurricanes weren't you?
"I had a couple of bands before Rory. I started with the Eddie Clayton Skiffle Group. I started on brushes and one snare. Then I went to the Dark Town Skiffle Group, which was like this big skiffle group in Liverpool. I auditioned for Rory, the only time I ever auditioned. Got the gig, played with him for a year. Then we got a gig in Butlin's, went professional and then we went to Germany. We were at one club, The Beatles were at another, we used to go and watch them. I loved the front line. We got to know each other, got back to Liverpool. Their drummer couldn't make it one day, Brian Epstein said, 'Could you play?' Couple of months later they asked me to join, that's the whole story."
Is it true the drum riser wasn't common before you had one in The Beatles?
"No, it wasn't common before. The reason I had a drum riser, and also the smallest kit of drums, was I was going to make damn sure you could see me. You know what I mean? Cos the drummer was always playing at the back, cymbals hiding him: 'Who the hell's on drums?' It was not gonna happen to me. I just thought, 'Shit, I'm gonna be out there too.' So i t was John, Paul, George… AND RINGO! They could all see me."
Yet you were never a fan of the drum solo?
"I wasn't into drummers in that way. I was into drummers being part of a band. I've seen the most miserable drum solos get a huge round of applause. And I always felt it was a cheap shot, because you could do anything and they'd all applaud. When we were with Rory, playing Butlin's, we used to do a double bill with this street band The Happy Wanderers, who used to march around London. And I'd always give their drummer my solo! 'OK mate!' Bop bop bob-ba-dop bop! Just on his bass drum! I just never liked solos. It's not what drumming's about for me. George Martin practically forced me to do that one on the end of Abbey Road, I do that 13-bar thing – bom bom bom bom bobbadobba bom – and that's as far as I'll go. The interesting thing is that because it's the only solo I've done, it's a classic now. Talked about in drum magazines!"
A drum part that's often admired is A Day In The Life.
"Yeah. It was good, but bigger than that was Rain, earlier on, and later was Bathroom Window and Polythene Pam. I'd got this new kit and I'd actually got calf heads, and the depth was incredible after all that plastic, so there's a lot of tom-tom stuff going on there."

Did John and Paul give you drumming directions, or were you able to experiment? —Scott Peterson Minneapolis
No, a song has a certain format. John always wanted two drummers, and I kept pointing out that it was just me. He would say, "Do that," and I [would say], "But they've got two drummers on that song, John." I'm blessed that I did have songwriters who had a specific way, but if I changed it my way, they went along with that too.
How would you describe your drumming style? —Terry Matlen birmingham, Mich.
I was blessed with great timing. The other blessing that makes my drumming individual is that I was born left-handed. But my grandmother turned me into a right-handed person. So, I'm actually ambidextrous. If I throw anything, play cricket or golf, it's done left-handed, but I write and cut with my right hand. I'm a weird, handy guy. That makes my style really personal.

Environmental Engineering Club Named Best In The WestSOCORRO, N.M. September 23, 2011– The campus environmental engineering club is officially the Best in the West!
|Members of the Environmental Engineering Club pose for a picture with their well-earned plaque declaring the club the top student chapter in the Rocky Mountain region. From left are Zachary Wasserman, Clayton Freed, Angie Bacigalupa, Bobby James, Danielle Shipley, Thomas Erbes, Kristen Henriksen, Marguerite Sheehan and club advisor Dr. Frank Huang.
The sponsoring organizations paid for current club president Danielle Shipley and club treasurer Zach Wasserman to attend their annual conference in Colorado in September to accept the award (and participate in the conference). The award included a small cash prize and a plaque.
Former club president Clayton Freed said the award is well-deserved for the Tech chapter.
"We're smaller than average, but we put on a lot of activities," said Freed, who has served three years as president. "We have a core group of students that is extremely active."
Faculty advisor Dr. Frank Huang said, "I am pretty proud of them because within the Rocky Mountain region, we have all these big universities. Our students have put forth a lot of effort and they've done a great job."
The other schools in the region are the University of New Mexico, University of Colorado, Colorado State, Colorado School of Mines and the University of Wyoming.
Freed said the club has put together a professional engineering panel to interact with students, participated in outreach efforts, organized professional field trips, sent students to conferences and competed in engineering challenges.
Last year, Freed helped organize what he called one of the club's most important events: a panel of professional engineers to advise and mentor students. The club hosted a dinner for the professionals, which gave students a chance to ask questions of and interact with environmental and civil engineers.
"We wanted to see what things people want in the real world that we may not necessarily hear about through school," he said. "Hopefully, that will become an annual event since we've done it two years in a row so far. It absolutely helps students get jobs and internships. The networking contacts are excellent."
Freed first took over as president when he was a sophomore, a year after the club's leadership all graduated.
Last year, then-president Sean Menk led a team that participated in a regional wastewater challenge. Menk, current club president Danielle Shipley, Megan Rosebrough and graduate student Thomas Erbes were one of only 12 teams that was invited to compete at the national event in California, which was also sponsored by the Wastewater Environment Fund.
In the spring of 2010, Freed, Menk and fellow Tech graduates Christine Polo and Amelia Symonds earned a second place award through the two professional organizations for their senior design project, in which they gave a complete recommendation for a water treatment plant in Denver (one of the largest treatment plants in Colorado).
Freed said that was another accomplishment that helped the Tech club win the award. The spate of awards and honors has also allowed the club to start filling up its trophy case in Jones Annex.
"When I was a freshman the case was empty," he said. "Now, we're filling it up. It looks impressive."
The club's field trips include destinations of interest to environmental engineers, including the Albuquerque wastewater plant, the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant in Carlsbad, the Eagle Picher Superfund site north of Socorro and a composting facility in Albuquerque.
"Water and Wastewater facilities are often the easiest places to get hands-on experiences through tours," Freed said. "But we've been to hazardous waste sites and the Albuquerque composting facility, where the residuals from the wastewater plant are composted with horse bedding and other materials from river banks. You wouldn't think it's too interesting to look at piles of compost, but it's intriguing how they are using engineering to be more responsible with waste materials."
In part thanks to club activities and involvement, environmental engineering students at New Mexico Tech are very successful at landing internships and launching careers upon graduation. Freed completed an internship at Denver Water during the summer of 2011. Five other students from the club had internships last summer at Sandia, Rio Rancho Utilities, and different mining companies.
The club meets twice a month – at 1 p.m. Fridays in Jones Annex 112. Anyone interested in joining – regardless of course of study – is welcome to join. For more information, email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Not many teams that are going to feel sorry for Duluth East.
The Greyhounds, hit with injuries and illnesses, have been a mainstay at the state tournament, where they always are considered a title contender.
They will not get any sympathy no matter how much their lineup is depleted.
Still, the past couple of weeks have been trying for Duluth East in terms of personnel.
Its starting goalie Dylan Parker sprained his ankle before a loss to Centennial on Dec. 18.
During the Schwan Cup senior Hogan Davidson ruptured his spleen and his hockey career at Duluth East is now over.
Now the Grehounds have to deal with a flu bug that is running its course through their locker room.
"Every team goes through something like this every year," Duluth East coach Mike Randolph said. "We are not going to make any excuses about that. We just have to have guys step up."
Junior defenseman Phil Beaulieu did not make the trip to Blaine with the Greyhounds as he was one who was hit with the spreading illness.
Senior forward Ryan Lundgren nearly missed the game because he was ill, but was able to tough it out and score a goal in the third and chip in with an assist.
"I didn't think he was going to suit up," Randolph said. "He was throwing up right before the game, but he got himself ready and played a great game."
With all the chaos that has been going on with Duluth East of late, it has still found ways to not only compete, but win big hockey games.
Its 5-1 victory against Blaine on Thursday, Jan. 3 at Fogerty Arena was just more evidence that no matter what is brought to the table the Greyhounds will find the right players remain a state powerhouse.
"It is nice to see a lot of guys step up and play pretty good when maybe they weren't expecting to as much this season," senior defenseman Meirs Moore said. "Everyone is contributing, especially the guys that are stepping in for guys that are injured or sick."
Moore's partner on the blue line has always been Beaulieu, and that combination has helped make Duluth East one of the state's stingiest defensive teams.
With Beaulieu back home Randolph tossed Joey Marinac with Moore and the Greyhounds didn't miss a beat.
Moore, one of the state's premier defensemen and a potential Mr. Hockey candidate, will sway into the offensive flow, which he did against Blaine scoring Duluth East's first goal on the power play.
For Marinac, his job was to shut down the aggressive and speedy Bengals.
"Guys are really playing their roles well," Randolph said. "We might not have the depth we have had in the past, but we have guys in that locker room that are stepping in and playing their role.
"Joey (Marinac) was one of those guys tonight. We put him with Meirs and he played a hell of a game."
Team defense has been an asset for the Greyhounds during these trying times.
In their last five games they have only allowed seven goals and it hasn't been against subpar competition.
After its win against Blaine, Duluth East is 4-1-0 in those past five, its only defeat coming to Breck, 2-0, in the opening round of the Schwan Cup Gold Division.
The Greyhounds own a 1.80 goals-against average.
"They have been great back there," Greyhounds' senior forward Alex Toscano said. "Meirs (Moore) has been leading them back there, our goalie has been hot and we have guys stepping up and filling in holes when we need it.
"We are on a roll right now, and it's because of them."
Toscano scored two goals in the second period against Blaine which gave Duluth East the lead for good.
Jack Forbort centers the top line and accounted for three assists, two to Toscano and one to Lundgren.
There isn't a player on Duluth East's roster that has 10 or more goals this season. Toscano leads the Greyhounds with seven while a handful of players have six and five respectfully.
What the Greyhounds have relied on is balance and accountability of players when they hit the limelight.
"We are not going to win a lot of games if we rely on our top line to do everything," Randolph said. "All of our lines need to play well, and when guys go down we need others to step in and we are getting all of that right now."
Its victory against Blaine comes on the heels of consecutive 4-1 wins against Edina and Minnetonka in the Schwan Cup.
Duluth East's hard-nosed defense that limited Blaine to 18 shots on goal.
"We are on a nice roll right now," Toscano said. "Defense has been great, we are scoring goals and everyone is doing everything they can to get us some huge wins on the road.
"On the bus ride home, eat some pizza and enjoy the ride back."
Alex Toscano
Alex Toscano scored twice as No. 6-ranked Duluth East defeated No. 9 Blaine 5-1 on Thursday, Jan. 3 at Fogerty Arena in Blaine.
Toscano scored both of his goals in the second period and the Greyhounds took a 3-1 lead heading into the third.
Just 80 seconds into the first period the Bengals took the lead on Dallas Gerads' fifth goal of the season.
Later in the first Meirs Moore scored on the power play knot it up at one.
Duluth East's Kyler Chartier was called for tripping 55 seconds into the third, but Blaine was unable to capitalize.
After Chartier's penalty expired, Wyatt Irwin intercepted a pass at the Bengals' blue line and made a nifty move to his backhand to slide a shot through the legs of Blaine goalie Bailey Ketola.
Ryan Lundgren concluded the scoring by chipping in a shot from in tight.
Toscano added an assist for a three-point night.
Duluth East's Jack Forbort had three assists and Lundgren had a goal and an assist.
Ketola made 27 saves while Dylan Parker was not nearly as busy for the Greyhounds, making 17 stops.
After its defeat to Breck in the opening round of the Schwan Cup, Duluth East is on a roll with three straight wins against top tier competition.
The Greyhounds (7-3-0) will be on the road again on Saturday, Jan. 5 when they take on Moorhead.
Blaine started the season 6-0-1, but is now on a four-game losing streak. The Bengals host Andover on Saturday, Jan. 5 in a Northwest Suburban Conference matchup.
1. Alex Toscano, Duluth East
One of the seniors that will need to play a big role in the scoring department, Toscano did so with two goals and an assist. Both his goals came in the second period and shifted control in the Greyhounds' favor.
2. Jack Forbort, Duluth East
Centers are supposed to be the playmakers and as the center of Duluth East's top line, he played that role to near perfection with three assists. He did not have the scoring chances that he has had in past games, but he set his teammates up for quality scoring chances all night.
3. Ryan Lundgren, Duluth East
Before the game Lundgren was throwing up as illness has hit the Greyhounds like a ton of bricks as of late, but he was able to pull through and contribute with a goal and an assist.

In an earlier post, I noted that a Dorothy Brookes married Thomas Flippin, 1769, Gloucester Co., VA. They had 3 known children, – Armistead (b. 1770), Jenny (b. 1775), and Thomas Flippin (b. 1773) – who were born in Gloucester Co., VA. and recorded in the Kingston Parish Registry.
Although Dorothy Brooks' parents are not known by me at this time, I believe she is connected to one of the Thomas Brooks families of Gloucester Co., VA and Caswell Co., NC.
The following are Brooks – Flippin references from Caswell Co., NC:
April court 1790 – Henry Flippin, orphan of Thomas Flippin, late of Gloucester Co., VA, chose Thomas Brooks Sen. to be his guardian. Thomas Brooks Jun, attorney, was appointed power of attorney to demand and receive all negroes, money, etc. due said orphan from the estate.
January Court, 1794 – Armistead Flippin reported the inventory of the estate of Thomas Brooks, dec'd.
April Court 1795 – Armistead Flippin purchased items and reported on the sale of items from Thomas Brooks' estate (co-admin. Jane Brooks)
[Note: I am not sure if the Thomas Brooks estates in 1794 and 1795 are for the same person because Jane is only mentioned as co-admin on the later one – To Do: Copy and review estate file of Thomas Brooks, 1794, Caswell Co., NC]
April Court 1798 – Jane Brooks and Armistead Flippin produced an account settlement for the estate of Thomas Brooks, Jun. (listed payments to persons)
Note GS 5/18/07: It is possible that Jane Brooks was the wife of Thomas Brooks and she administered his estate along with Armistead Flippin. Jane was probaby "Jenny" Flippin from the Gloucester Co., VA Kingston Parish Registry, daughter of Thomas Flippin and Dorothy Brookes, born Feb 10, 1775. Kay Haden (khaden at comcast dot net) included this information in the pdf file she sent to me on 5/17/07 on Jonathan Brooks. In her file, she listed Thomas Brooks Jr married Jane "Jenny" Flippin 16 Feb 1791 in Caswell Co., NC. She cited W. Leigh Brooks and IGI as her sources for this information.
Additional Flippin family references in Caswell Co., are:
Janurary court 1804 – Armistead Flippin is allowed to keep 1 negro named John from the estate of Henry Dixon Jr; The legatees "agreed he shall keep for his share of estate."
Note: Armistead Flippin must be connected to the Dixon family somehow to receive items from his estate.
In 1808, Samuel Flippin purchased items from the estate of Phillip Cox.

The use of GMOs is governed in Spain by three laws on national level, as well as by several regional laws. The government has presented a draft regulation on co-existence, but it has not yet been notified to the EU.
On 19 July 2005, the draft of the Royal Decree on Co-existence was presented by the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Agriculture, Fishery and Food, and this document is now being discussed. The law responds to the actual situation, which began more than eight years ago and during which problems have not been documented, and refers to the ability of farmers to choose between production of organic, conventional, or GM cultivation.
In the case of maize, for example, co-existence would have required a distance of 50 meters and four rows of isolation, ensuring that accidental mixing between GMO and conventional cultures stays below the thresholds established in EU legislation.
The draft also contemplates the organisation of information programs for farmers, as well as contemplating recommendations for the control of adventitious plants and for the handling of seeds of conventional varieties. In July 2006, the Government presented the second version of the draft of the Royal Decree which, compared with the previous version, shows some changes: for example, that separation distances between GM and non-GM crops must be 220 metres instead of 50 metres. And Farmers must register GMO cultivation plans in a register.
No special regulations have been installed for the liability for economic damages caused by GMOs. The relevant legal framework is provided by the legislation concerning general civil liability.
At least once during the cultivation period, the autonomous regions should inspect a percentage, set by the Royal Law, of fields seeded with GMOs. This inspection will ensure compliance with regulations on isolation distances, the use of seeds, and good agricultural practice. To verify the adequate use of harvesters, as well as the physical separation and labelling of batches for diverse destinies, a second inspection will take place during harvest.
To carry out the supervision, and control, of all the aspects of co-existence, both ministries will devise a yearly National Supervision Plan. This plan will include all controls and analyses required to survey and evaluate of the co-existence legislation, and will include controls and analyses for the cultivation and commercialisation of products. To verify the success of the installed measures, the plan will also provide guidelines to monitor the presence of GMOs in cultivated or non-cultivated zones adjacent to GMO fields.
