Crap, shoulda reAD FURTHER DOWN. mY BAD.
NEVER!!! DO NOT DO IT!!! Dude, I did, and It was one of the worst gegrets I have almost 20 years later> MAn, Its hard times, but there is ALWAYS an option. Once again , IM takin it back to one of...
MAn I every time I watch Carter Beuford lay down grooves I want to scissor kick my instructor!! It leaves so much more movement and freedom for the right hand to "play" around while maintaining that...
:punk::punk::clap::clap:
I started off as FIZ. A name given to me from my guitar player when him and I would play Mortal Kombat, the arcade original. And it stuck. But , many years later my older bassist and father went to...
I will def try the downtuning. I played out Saturday night with it, the wifey went and surprised me with an EMAD for it, so I slapped it on with full choke muffle installed. I cranked it up pretty...
Hey guys, need some help. I switched up from my 22" Mapex kick to a new 18" fusion kick. Im using EmAD 2 on the 22, and want to EmAD the 18 as well. I have had trouble getting a nice thuddy, tight...
Good Call, John!! I was going to post the exact same thing. I had same problem. I moved my contact beater pads up an inch, used the thin ring for the EMAD2 beater head, ported out a 4 " hole in my...
Nice gig, Ritter!!!
I did not play, sadly. Attended a wedding with my EX fiance. Had a great time, though. Watched some seriously untalented folks destroy everything they tried to sing on karaoke....
Sweet snag, Oak!! Cherish this time and gift youve been given, my friend. These are going to be the best times of your life, and they will make you the musician you are destined to be!! Awesome!
Yea Ice I am somewhat familiar with their outlook. I cant say I have much faith, though. And I wlll say this, Weasel. You are the PERFECT age to plan your future. Set goals. Sounds corny, but I...
No way, dude. 10 years is plenty of time to accomplish all that. Most of it depends on how bad you want it, and the "push ups" your willing to do to make it happen/ Good luck, and thanks for posting.
Ok DC, Im completely bored at work. Last day of 2009. I refreshed my 3rd cup of java for the morning so far, stopped for a moment to peruse the 42" flatscreen in our waiting room, just in time to see...
Sweet hot girlfriend, brah!! And Granny can take me to the prom any day!! Rawk on!!
That dude is KILLER!! He is a funk drummers DREAM bassist. Amazing. GReat VID.
I Just went through the same thing. We just could NOT find common ground. The bass player would praise me to my face, but complain behind my back to the singer. It drove me crazy. Communication is...
Great debateable question. Obviously, there is the "technical" aspect of playing, and then there is personal preferance. For example, if you asked my father ( a guitarist ) whos "good", he would...
Yea man I have been to the mainland a few times, on lay overs and even an overnighter, on my way back to the Rock, ( Okinawa). Real solid place and culture. It will blow your mind. Especially Tokyo....
Yea if Im right he toured with her on her album in the late 80's early 90's on her Rythm Nation 1814 tour. I think that was him. Real talented cat.
Just my 2 cents. The shoulder should not even be an issue when playing any kind of stroked rolls. In theory, you shouldnt fell any tension past your elbows ( if your playing on a single drum, say,...
YAHTZEE!!!!! Never can a drummer have enough sticks. I still use different sizes for different music. It teaches diversity and helps keep technique fresh. I say go for it!!
:punk:
Welcome to DC, LDS!! I started out in a Competition Drum Corps in high school, and did not transfer that over to the kit until 3 years after. I agree with the teacher posts. Stick levels, elbow...
