Anyone going to PASIC this year? For those that aren't familiar, P.A.S.I.C. is the acronym for Percussion Arts Society International Convention.
In a nutshell, it's where the percussion world comes...

Hey Ricardo, thanks for checking in... and for your honesty.

You're right… things have gotten quiet around here, and I share your sentiment. DrumChat was once buzzing with daily conversations,...

When someone describes a cymbal as sounding "tinty," they’re typically referring to a tone that is thin, high-pitched, and lacking in warmth or body. It often has a sharp, metallic, or even brittle...

Ha-ha!

I didn't know you were interested in girls Rick. When did this happen? :loller4:

The quality of mid level drumkits has improved so much that a lot of pro drummers are opting for those instead of the top of the line kits. The outrageous prices don't seem worth it anymore for a lot...

lol... AI generated do you think? A lot of that going around these days.

We all do that while we're learning. It just takes making yourself do it and developing that muscle memory. After a while, your arm gets used to the motion and you'll start doing it without even...

Hey all you drum bunnies.... :clap2: Happy Easter! (almost :biggrin:)

Man, it's always sad to see these guys go. I wasn't a Judas Priest fan so less familiar with it but he's a drum brother, so....
R.I.P Les Binks

I heard that it's because he overplayed? Or something like that? Man, did they remember Keith Moon?!!!

What he said. My apologies to some of the regulars. I was navigating some personal stuff and on hiatus. Glad to be back!
Missed you guys!

I don't think I would've been anywhere near those teeth. Damn!!

Ha-ha!

My God, that was wonderful!!!! Love that early Chicago.
