11 years and 5 hours ago on June 9th, 2014, I was being wheeled into the operating room for triple bypass surgery.

I know I say this just about every year but just because you feel good doesn't...

Rick, how does 1 know if a given cymbal is mellow, maybe a little dark OR maybe not so mellow and possibly a little lighter? Is there some device that can measure this type of thing or does 1 still...

" It's simply a preference".

Isn't that what it always comes down to?????

As of this past April, I have been on Drum Chat for 14 years. In that time I've heard cymbals being called...

"I don't know why but I've never been that fond of Paiste cymbals. They always sounded a bit 'tinty' to me".

Hey guys, exactly what does "tinty" sound like ????

It probably sounds like the brass 1.

Let me see. We were in Kindergarten so that would make us about 5. We were going to elope, but we were stopped at the corner of Ave C because we couldn't cross the street by ourselves so that pretty...

I had heard of them but never saw them or heard any of their songs until I watched a tribute to Sydney Durso when she retired (after 7 years) and they played this...

Gary Chester played on a lot of popular songs including some of my favorites. I couldn't place the name mainly because back in the day if any 1 or group was mentioned, it was Hal Blaine and the...

Keep an eye on E-bay and you will find what you want (or close enough to it) for what you are prepared to spend.

Maybe next time he should use a smaller boat and have some Depends on him.

It sounded good Jackie. I reached a point over 50 years ago when I just stopped playing it. Your guys always sound good!!!

I was looking at an on-line music store and they had a couple of sets of Yamaha drums. A 5 piece shell pack that, when all is said and done, will sound like most 5 piece good drum sets and the price...

I always thought that this solo was better than the " Impossible" solo.

By the end, you can see all the sweat on the snare. Buddy told me that when it gets in his...

If I remember right, 602's were the cymbals he used in Take 5 and Far More Drums.

"I've been away for I don't know how long".

Looks like about 2 weeks to me.

Seriously, it gets like this every once and awhile. What will happen then is 15-20 drummers will rediscover how to write (or print in some cases) and all will write "War and Drums" in various...

C'est La Vie

I was looking for a bar 1 night and stumbled on Drum Chat. Next month will be 14 years. I'm a little surprised that I've lasted that long being as I only lasted on Drumeo for 20 minutes.

When what????????????

Some people think that once you pass a certain age (maybe 60) you shouldn't be able to look anymore.
