    Sticky: Re: The Church Drummers Thread

    I tried the "sheet strip" thing you mentioned; worked fantastically. I managed to fit my kit comfortably in a cubbie hole near our baby grand piano. It has walls all around it. The good thing is, I'm...

    That's why I love it here so much. You can't be taught how to play stuff here, it has to always come from what's inside. It's got a whole different meaning than anything else, to me.

    I love just sitting around and listing to the people who have played on Beale for most of their lives. It rekindles my spirit every time I do.

    I may ask if all else fails. I don't want to since we dont currently have a music minister or a pastor. I just may buy an e-kit with my own money and donate it (if I can gather it together from...

    Because I can actually focus on the purpose of why I'm playing, that is.

    I probably would have chosen an e-kit over an a-kit just because it would have been a lot easier to move around (my church does events and shows periodically) and just have to play, but they got an...

    I will definitely give this a try. I can say that I'm pretty much at a last resort option now. I may spend this next Sunday afternoon trying things out. I may just shell out some of my own munnies to...

    To be honest, I never even crash because I know it will be too much. I try to keep it as simple as I can. Basic 4/4 beat. No fills. Nothing.

    Thanks for making me feel welcome. Well, currently I haven't been playing because we don't have a full time music minister. So, getting a shield may be a problem right now. The sanctuary is pretty...

    So, I've been waiting to ask this forever... How can I get the best acoustic sound in the sanctuary that I play in? It is by far the most open place ever, with only benches and a balcony with more...
