    Wha? Me prank?

    Way to go on the piano, Stokes. That'll set you up to play vibes as well as drums. Also, tell your mom I said any kid who keeps his room that clean deserves a DW seven piece with Paiste signature cymbals!

    I think you really need to ditch that stack of books and set up the stand to that practice pad youre playing .

    It seems like you have been practising stokes. cool stuff. how did the audition go?
    for some constructive comments, try some left hand lead patterns in your practise, also concentrate on toning your right hand down a bit with the accents or at least having your left hand be equal to the accents of the right hand. I know its not an audtion tape but posture should also be a serious factor when approaching rudimentary snare. I really liked it man, keep it up.
