Adjust your technique. I've never used "special" brushes and have never had any issues with "sticking". Change your angle and your circular motion. Don't move it towards the tips of the brushes. ...

It's music, not brain surgery, play your part and let the other musicians do the same. If that doesn't work, find an other group of people to play with (or eliminate the offender).

If you are buying new, all you have to do is Google it and check eBay for new pricing. As far as adding an Acrolite, you should play some and make sure it's a sound you want. I have never found it...

Experimentation will help dictate what you like. I prefer Remo pinstripes over the G2's. Otherwise, you can go on Evans' site and read comparisons on their other heads as compared to the G2's.

Before most of today's named drummers were born - there was Ron Bushy. More innovative than many/most drummers of the day, and today.

Exactly.

No. They are indeed completely different to play. They may work fine for some but not for playing concerts or professionally. Practice at best.

Some do, I choose to tune and dampen without tape on my instruments. I use moon-gels sparingly but have been known in the past to apply a 2-3" wide piece of white terry cloth, under the batter...

Those are gorgeous (the drums), but the only thing that makes my pulse go up is racing on the weekends. It's the season.

Actually glad to hear. A triple by-pass is a daily occurring operation that will, after complete, make you much safer than you are today. Enjoy your new lease on life. Prayers for comfortable and...

Too many choices. If you're an A$$ you probably won't get through the initial auditions. However, if you've got world-class chops, your poor people skills may be overlooked for a while. In the...

Hypotheticals like this are pointless. EVERYTHING material can be replaced. If you are not insured, now is the time.

Practice pads are great for ... wait ... practice. But seriously, your teacher told you that you need one - so get one. He/she will have his/her reasons for wanting students to have one. Just...

Missed this on Easter but it's never too late to return good wishes. Thanks. Here's a small group that lives in my back yard. The rest were busy Sunday. ...

Your drums, your call. Personally I'm not a fan of racks of any type - but the drums are gorgeous.

Does the color matter to you? I wouldn't put anything I cared for (in this case drum heads) into contact with chemicals - including, and especially, bleach.

Different, maybe curious ... but, I'm not amazed. "Amazing" is far too overused.

Obviously if you have rust and damage, you have two choices. Replace the damaged/defective equipment with new shiny chrome hoops and rods OR something else like powder coating or re-chroming. I...

Good way to do it. No reason to overthink it - just play.

Triple Bypass? You'll be feeling like a new man hours after the surgery. Enjoy your new lease on life.

That's not too bad. When you said 2 long sets, I was imagining 2 two-hour sets and that's a bit much.

That's great. How long were your 2 long sets?

I would do a search on head combinations here in the forum. There are innumerable threads. There are many very popular batter heads that a majority of drummers use and there are others less popular...

Sticks that work for you are great sticks. The contact point between the stick and head is ... tiny and the material of the stick won't effect sound. Weight, tip material on cymbals.. will alter...
