Derrick Bostrom
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Derrick Bostrom (born June 23, 1960) is an American musician. He was the drummer of the band Meat Puppets, which he founded together with the Kirkwood brothers, Cris and Curt, in 1980.
Derrick remained a member until 1996 when the band effectively went on hiatus. Although Curt later revived the Meat Puppets, Derrick has not performed with the band since. However, he has still remained somewhat active as a musician by releasing material under the moniker of Today's Sounds as well as collaborating with Neil Hamburger and Cliff Sarde (on his Smoke N' Function project). Derrick has also maintained the official Meat Puppets website since 1995 — and has continued to do so despite the band being defunct. Furthermore, he oversaw the Rykodisc reissue of the Meat Puppets' SST era albums.
In 2006, the Kirkwood brothers were planning to reunite with Bostrom, but when he posted on the Meat Puppets' official site, he quickly dismissed the notion. [1] Primus drummer Tim Alexander is now the replacement of Bostrom for the band's reunion. [2]
