    Internet search.

    I'm looking to socialize with a wider array of other drummers. I've been playing seriously for 3 years now. I first played as a teen, but never achieved much back then and didn't understand the importance of practice. Now that I do practice, my skills have improved greatly, and I keep getting better and better!

    I have vidoes to show, but want to wait until it's clear that's not the only reason I'm here!

    Hey guys. I am new on here, not new to drums, bUT haven't played in years, and hoping to get back into playjng. I just picked up a Sonor 2005 kit Zildjian cymbals.

    I am a basement drummers so to speak. I played in a marching band when I was a kid, and garage bands throughout my teens and early 20's. I just turned 41, and have been thinking that some of the happiest times of my life were behind a drum set. So I bought a used kit.

    I do not see dead ppl, but I feel alive when I play drums. So I have lots of questions for you guys, hoping to learn lots, and maybe even share a little.

    My favorite drummer growing up was Dave Langguth, a guy from my hometown, who showed me a paradiddle, many years ago.
