Where Did The Rest Of Shaya Lieber Go?

I was at a wedding of a good friend last night and the band was Neshoma. I saw a guy playing percussion who looked a lot like Shaya Lieber except a bunch of him seemed to be missing. Like 50 pounds or so.

I asked him during a set where the rest of him was. He said Far Rockaway.

Not only is he a really good guy, but he is a tremendously talented percussionist who played on a whole bunch of the songs on U'Shmuel B'korei Sh'mo. Now he's just a lot smaller version.
