Re: Struggling with RSI after pad work
Agree about seeing a physio.

Re: RIP Ray Manzarek
:)
Just listening back to their debut album - such great music right from the first track. The Doors were always atmospheric and engaging to me with a great band sound. Ray was a big part of that.

Re: ...for the jazz cats ...
Congrats and commiserations, Andrew :)
Cool period Miles, MJQ, Brubeck should tame the savage beast. Maybe Herbie Mann in a pinch. In dire circumstances "sounds of the rainforest" type CDs are...

Re: Why I don't play V-Drums
I think there were about half a dozen different incarnations that were banned. No doubt the red curtain came down and things spiralled out of control there for a while. The lad's had a hard life.

Re: RIP Ray Manzarek
Fantastic legacy. Absolutely loved Ray's playing with The Doors. There was no one like him.
74 is a good innings for a rock musician and I think that's about how far I'd like to go. Some people...

Re: Why I don't play V-Drums

Re: nice Charlie Watts video
Thanks Ant. Charlie's always a candid and interesting interviewee. The "If it ain't got that swing" interview is another good video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1_6z9oqet8

Re: Thoughts on YouTube Covers?
You behave yourself, young Laurence. Think of the poor innocent impressionable young drummers who come to this forum - only to confront the demented ravings of a married middle aged man :)
