Hello Stewart Copeland fans,
I am looking for some help – as part of a documentary I am making, I am looking for a high quality scan of this Police era drum schematic:

Hi Olimpass,
Not sure if you got my messages - could really use your help.
I am writing about this image you uploaded:

i.e. schematic...
Become good friends with your metronome. Structure your practice times and break down each of those scheduled times into pieces. Make it a serious routine so that you feel weird if you miss a...
I have heard that if you learn to play country songs in reverse, you'll get your wife back, your money back and your dog might even come come again. Sorry. I'll get me coat.
Start a regime of practising with a friend standing behind you with a water gun, and have them squirt you in the back of the head every time your elbows get out of line!
Not necessary any more than it is for a guitarist or singer, but you'll be automatically ahead of the game if you can. A drummer who can compose / read music is a less likely thing than a guitarist...
Buy yourself some mallets and some tuned african percussion instruments, such as a tongue / slip drum, marimba.... musically they are quite inspirational.
I have used a Zoom H4n for years. Reliable and very good for the low entry cost, plus you can line-in or record the room.
Throw yourself into a youtube wormhole and look up bands from the 1976-77 punk and postpunk scene. Check out some early Cure sets! Lol Tolhurst was not a great or even a particularly good drummer,...
Hang on, i'll look it up
Brilliant!
Whilst I am technically more in the "percussionist" realm than "drummer", my two cents is that I lifted my game significantly with the purchase of a couple of tongue (slip) drums and the use of a...
I can attest to the solidarity and transparency of Mackie mixing desks. Extremely good bang for the buck IMO.
Billy Joel - "All for Leyna" (1980)
This album is amazingly produced. One of my all time favourite "audiophile" LPs to spin on the Technics deck.
I was once mistaken for a certain sort-of-famous muso and played along by giving an autograph.
Here in Australia, I found the internet to be a godsend for musical instruments. I have never found a guitar in one store which I couldn't find a similar or better brother or sister to online for a...
Would love to know if that kid is still playing drums, say, 10-15 years from now....
Some Melissa Etheridge vibe happening with those vocals. Nice work.
King Crimson - "Lament" (1974)
John Wetton was a rock god

There is never anything wrong with throwing your hat in the ring when you are looking to extend yourself in some way. You just need to be psychologically prepared for what your ego would receive as...
Orrrrrr
Phil Collins - whose early Genesis and Brand X work was stunningly detailed, and whose post-"going solo" work was as impactful, tasteful and just darn tasty sounding as anything he did...
Stewart Copeland, if not for his forging of an instantly recognizeable style and vibe, then for his personality - dude would fun to hang with for an hour. Or more.
Would be nice if his name could be corrected in the thread title... yes, a sardonic genius of diabolical proportions. The sound and depth of Steely Dan's records were the catalyst for my return to...
