    Default trying to control myself, Oh yea I meant to keep hitting my sticks together

    Start lessons today so I thought I'd get one more take of me goin nutz before structure. I have been working on time and rudiments, gettin a practice pad for (30) and snagged a new 18" C/R planet Z + 14" planet Z highhat set(70). If you look to my front left you see a 16'' + 14" turned insideout(this only sounds good at exactlly the right moment) and tightened.[ame="http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6YR747IW8o"]http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6YR747IW8o[/ame]

    F/t it looks and sounds like you got some pretty good skills they just need to be perfected. I don't wanna keep hammering about your set up but idk how you would be able to do cross overs on anything other than your big floor tom. If you could get used to playing with a more "traditional" set up and learn cross overs, it'll open up alot of new fills and patterns for you.

    I appreciate the idea. I have just reached a point where I am putting more effort into my kit( to see if its what I want and am even good at) I know I need to be more open(not so stubborn)about the arrangement. As you can tell I have a problem with the toms(no plan of attack or time) so I origanally came up with this setup using only the snare,bass,high's, and ride. It keeps me in rythmic check! the rest was a quick slide in fix. I do intend on using different setups. Had to let the limbs fly one last time!
