you remove finger prints from your cymbals?
Nope, I never said that. I have my girlfriend do it.

Ha. That picture must be almost three years old. But I look exactly the same as I did when that picture was taken, really, I wouldn't lie to you!

have you been told you look like Mickey Rourke or is it just the pic?
Ha! What a thread..................................
Never heard that phrase before. Is it Italian? Anywho, I'm terrible with endings. I need to practice them quite a few times to get them down. Although, many endings are just ad-lib and sometimes it works out well.Interesting to think about, really. The point of the thread is to admonish drummers to never let a cymbal ring when the band plays a tutti cesura ending. In other words, play the ending "as written," or as previously agreed upon. Does anyone really need to be reminded of this?
(I'm only guessing at the "tutti cesura." I've been wracking my brain to come up with the right term, to no success. Still, tutti cesura actually works, and it's also rather cute.)
Ya, the thought never even crossed my mind that this is something to be concerned about. I don't have any drummer based pet peeves. Mine mostly have to do with players of other instruments. Like all the constant guitar noodling going on in between songs. As soon as they plug in and the power is connected, up goes the volume and the noodling commences.I can appreciate musical pet peeves because I have a lot of them myself. I can't say this is one of them, though.
Now when someone plays a cymbal crash without accompanying it with a unison note from the bass drum or snare, that's something I find really objectionable and wrong.

Sounds good. I learn something new everyday. It's been so long since I've played from sheet music. Ironically, about as long as I've been playing drums.Tutti and cesaru are actual musical terms and yes, they are Italian. Most of them are, I think, sforzando and glissando and allegro and so on.
Tutti means everyone and cesura means complete stop. What I did was put the two together to mean "everyone stop."
I doubt that it's a strictly legitimate orchestral term. Let's say that I coined it. Please don't do this.
I believe the correct orchestral term is "ending with a bang" or ad finem cum cohortem or ad finem cum acuta gravis uolnerati.
Don't quote me on this or you'll look really, really silly or, as the Latins say, non commemorare me in hoc aut petetis vere, inepte.

Spes, it's never to late to learn!
Oh dear, that is something I do from time to time, but it's a deliberate thing. Typically one, or even two unsupported crashes before the main accent on the "1". I'll break away early from the toms in a linear fill, and infill on crashes, or precede the "1" with a couple of splash hits, all in quick succession of course. I also use an unsupported crash as a prelude to a bigger accent, or something to add syncopation to an otherwise straight passage.

Yeah, but I'm too lazy. lol
