LP Present At Arbiter's Day Of Percussion
LP's Executive Vice President David McAllister, and LP's Sales Director Angelo Arimborgo, and I visited Arbiter's Day of Percussion held at Brent Cross Banqueting Center in North London on March 11. I am confident that Arbiter's support and expertise will greatly assist with LP's market penetration in the UK. Santana percussionists, Karl Perazzo and Raul Rekow, along with Robin Jones performed at the event, demonstrating LP instruments and entertaining the crowd.

I recently visited London to meet with various LP artists and to attend a percussion celebration held by Arbiter, our new UK distributor.
Percussionist Karl Vanden Bossche organized a recording session on March 9, which included Thomas Dyani, Lekán Babololá, and Satin Singh. The resulting track will be part of the upcoming 2003 LP Holiday CD.

My Trip To California
During my trip to California this February, I visited friends and LP Artists. In Los Angeles I had the opportunity to meet with Richie Gajate Garcia and Clayton Cameron.
In San Francisco I visited drum builder, Akbar Mogaddam, and had dinner with some of our favorite people, including Karl and Debbie Perazzo, Jesus Diaz, Greg Landau, Eric Rangél, and Arturo Riera. We also enjoyed rekindling our friendship with Massound Badakhshan, owner of Height Ashbury Music, later in our trip
