	Matt Sorum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Matt Sorum (born Matthew Sorum, November 19, 1960, in Mission Viejo, Venice Beach, California) is a hard rock drummer and percussionist.
		Sorum's work with Chateau produced a four song set that was covered by local radio stations for a short time, but the music scene changed from grandiose rock to punk and alternative new wave music.
		Sorum is the first drummer who pioneered the Easton Ahead sticks in the early 90s during the Use Your Illusion Tour, sticks which are now played by many metal drummers, including Lars Ulrich of Metallica and Joey Jordison of Slipknot.
