Stick Control for the snare drummer by George Lawrence Stone.
I have started working on new drum material for next years talent show. Slowing down the jazz solo for better control and deciding either to do a video of a cover song or a solo with brushes. Also I...
I'm back from the talent show and I took first place. However there were mistakes made that I guess no one noticed. Dropped my stick but kept playing with the other stick. A gentleman picked up my...
Well it's getting closer to the talent show next Friday. Took some time off of practice to relax and unwind. Start practice tomorrow thru Wednesday pack drums up Thurs night. Looking forward to this...
I just got my new bass drum head for my 22". It is black with the Gretsch logo offset. Can't wait to put it on but haven't decided if I want to put a port hole in it. I guess it really doesn't matter...
I think I am going to rethink my packing. As far as wrapping the bass drum up. I would like to add by protecting my Gretsch catalina maple kit one I paid alittle over a$1000.00 for it and second it...
I just thought of something. Maybe I can wrap my drums in bubble wrap. That would give me alittle more room. What do you all think of that Idea?

While trying to fit my drum cases in my small Hyundai Tiburon hatchback. Notice my 22" bass drum case will not fit in the back or the front. The only thing I can do is convert my 16" floor tom to a...
Thinking about changing up my drum solo for the talent show. My jazz is not really that good and I don't want to make myself look like a fool. I am going to practice and play last years solo which I...
I also have lower back problems. Doctors have told me I have two degenerated disks L4 & L5. Started sitting alittle lower and that seems to help.
I work in housekeeping at the VA medical center.
AWWWW So cute!
Thank you jedi that really help me a lot. Oh and I just finished setting up my 4 piece kit. Started fooling around and realized it is 8:30pm I better stop before I upset the neighbors:icon_lol:.

I had a really bad day at work today. So depressed that I don't even know if I want to play in the talent show now. Last night I just set up my bass drum and haven't set the rest of the kit...
No Video's yet. I will see if I can get a copy from this year's talent show and try to post it.
Decided to use the 16"x16" floor tom instead of the 14"x14" floor tom. And use the 22" bass drum and 12" rack tom and 14"x5 snare.
I will be performing in this years talent show. Have decided to take the 22" bass drum,snare and three toms. Although it's a 3 minute drum solo that I will be doing. Going to work on a jazz solo and...

I went and ordered the Sonor safari today. Got the red galaxy sparkle because it seems like the black galaxy sparkle was more popular and cost more. It might take a couple of weeks to get it due to...
I was watching some video's where drummers are using there fingers and playing fast. Trying to learn the same technic as JoJo Mayer explains it. Guess it take some practice and getting use to. One...
