Bill Faust was an amazing person on so many levels. There is not a day that goes by that I don’t think of him in some way. I was very fortunate to work for Bill while I was in high school. I learned more about life than I did about drums. Countless conversations about life, politics, Milwaukee, relationships, and self. Bill always told me “put yourself on a pedestal because nobody else will”. Bill was friends with my parents and often attended my gigs in town. My father was a drummer and was a customer as well since the 50’s. Bill ALWAYS wore a suit and tie… a true class act. Bill left an impression on EVERY musician that met him. Almost 10 years since his passing, his memory is still strong.
