Bob Kuban’s My Side Of The Bandstand
Thursday, May 29th, 2008
Recently I discovered a book on Amazon.com with the title of My Side Of The Bandstand by Bob Kuban. Since Bob, who became famous for his hit single – The Cheater – was my music teacher for four years of band class at Bishop du Bourg High School in St. Louis, Mo. I couldn’t resist the book.

WOW. The book was fascinating in so many ways. Written with Nancy K. Wegner, Bob delved deeply into his life as a professional drummer and his entire life from the time he first picked up his beloved drum sticks.
