Wow!
It appears there's not much middle ground on the gloves issue; they're either loved or hated.
To each his own, I guess, but it makes sense to me that if you're practicing long and hard enough to get blisters maybe you should take a break. Or practice with gloves!
I'm surprised to hear that so many gloves are wearing out so quickly. I got my golf gloves back in November, and just this past week wore a hole in one of them. Granted, I only play a few times a week, but that includes a 2-3 hour rehearsal and 3 high-energy services on Sunday. (This is not your father's praise band!)
Since I didn't have time to pick up a new glove I put a band-aid on my finger so I wouldn't get - you guessed it - A Blister!
Uh-oh! Since I took preemptive steps to avoid a blister, does that mean I'm no longer a 'real' drummer??
Just playin' around, folks! Don't cuss me out too bad!
Find what works for you, and make it work the best it can. The important thing is to KEEP DRUMMING!
