    When I was a kid I used to use the practice pad 2-3 hours a day. I used to drive my parents crazy. Once they got mad at me and took my pad away. So I went out side, sat under a tree, and practiced rudiments on my bicycle tire. I think they wanted to put me into therapy!

    I get home at 3, and I got karate from 5:30 to 8, so usually I practice 2 hours a day, and after karate I do my homework for about an hour, eat dinner, take a shower, and get to bed at 11.

    Thats only on weekdays. On weekends, I practice about 4 hours. So thats about 18 hours a week.

    I usually put in about 20 hours a week ( that includes 8 hours with my band). I work nights, so I really don't have to worry about pissing off my neighbors.

    I've only practiced 30-60 minutes for 6 days a week, back at my old place. Hard to do here....so I've been out of practice for 2 months. But at the same time, I study the rythyms in my head so next time I actually sit at my set, I can practice better.

    Much like when I hold off from doing artwork for a while I get better next time around.

    lol, dude, i come home, and hit the set for like 2 hours a day

    Then on saturady i have a snare drum lession in drumline (guys helping me out to make tenors my freshman year, were working on snare stuff now though)

    thats a hour, then probably another 2-3 hours of playing throughout the day
    each day

    So probably around 15 hours?
