Common Traits Among Great Drummers:
Even though drummers are as diverse as anyone
else, the truly great ones share some things
in common. Here are six common traits I've
noticed all great people who play drums have...
1. Great drummers know themselves. They
understand their talents and strengths, and
they know how to use them to their advantage.
2. Great drummers are open to feedback. They
learn from the opinions of other who play
drums. Even the opinions of less accomplished
drummers.
3. Great drummers are eager to learn and
improve on the drums. They have a thirst for
knowledge and ask questions. As they are
lifelong students of the drums who
continuously reinvent themselves, they adapt
to the ideas they consistently learn. They
know by acquiring new information they keeps
themselves improving.
4. Great drummers are curious and not afraid
to take risks on the drums. They push the
envelope, looking for adventure. They explore
new options, not fearing mistakes. They know
that success depends upon pushing forward
toward improvement. They embrace errors
because they believe mistakes offer a
valuable learning experience.
5. Great drummers learn from criticism. They
are students of the drums, and adversity
builds their character. Every great drummer
can point to a significant critic that
affected his or her development.
6. Great drummers serve as a role model or
mentor for other people who play drums. They
coach others, helping them focus on
improvement, teaching, mentoring and
empowering them.
Do you see yourself in any of these six
points? If not, there is a quick fix... The
answer lies in a simple change of attitude.
An attitude that says, "I am confident!"
If you noticed, the six characteristics
listed above have not even a hint of
arrogance in them. Now, there is huge line
dividing confidence and arrogance. How to
distinguish between the two can be clarified
in the following points...
~ A drummer of confidence says that he or she
can play something on drums and others also
can, whereas a drummer of arrogance says that
he alone can do it and nobody else can.
~ A drummer of confidence always tries to
encourage and help others in building their
confidence on the drums, where as a drummer
of arrogance tries to discourage other
drummers.
~ A drummer of confidence attracts other
drummers who feel confident and elevated in
his or her presence and gets inspiration in
his or her company, whereas an arrogant
drummer creates repulsion in the mind of
other drummers who try to avoid him or her
because of his or her boastful nature.
~ A drummer of confidence appreciates the
success of other people who play drums and
shares his or her happiness with them,
whereas a drummer of arrogance discourages
and tries to humiliate other drummers and
feels jealous of their success.
~ There is joy in being around drummers of
confidence because they are cheerful and can
mix freely with everyone else. In the
presence of arrogant drummers, even confident
drummers may tend to feel a bit inferior on
the drum kit.
Conclusion
Truly great drummers share common traits...
traits such as a high degree of confidence,
an openness to criticism, a willingness to
teach, a great desire to expand their playing
skills, and the ability to remain humble.

If you take the time to read Sticks posts and inbetween the words, he offers an eclectic and sprited greating to all he communicates with on DC. He is a member you simply can not forget. There is more to this drummer, take time and see if you can catch the wizard behind the curtain.
