Re: Why I don't play V-Drums

As in a photo of all the money she makes or is this a Melbournian euphemism for something else? : )

Re: Why I don't play V-Drums

That's exactly the point I was making at the beginning of this thread.
If Bo had filmed this guy in front of the PA instead of from the side I doubt we would even be having this conversation.

Re: Anybody have that 'magic touch'?

Haven't broken a stick or cracked a cymbal in years (playing e-drums probably helps in this regard).

Re: That magic womb rhythm...

I think all drummers experience this to a certain extent (although not as profoundly or as frequently as we would like).

Re: Why I don't play V-Drums

This meme seems to suggest that v-drums look awesome yet you didn't comment on that. Did your eyes even make it to the text at the bottom? : P

Re: Why I don't play V-Drums

Has anyone ever been foolish enough to attempt such a thing (geez, can you imagine the responses to that one)?

Re: Why I don't play V-Drums

Absolutely no reason for his guy to be smacking the crap out of his v-drums (but its just the way he's used to playing I guess).
I see you were filming from side on- did it at least sound ok out...

Re: The thread derail thread

I think I'd look good in a cape- maybe for my next vid (or a horse mask perhaps).

Guess this means I have to call Larry "Sheldon" from now on ( and yes, Sean certainly gets the ultimate derail...

Re: The thread derail thread

Dear God, what have I done??? : P
Sorry Uncle Larry- didn't think things would get out of hand this much (it's amazing what people say when it's a random thread though). Some great stuff here (even...

Re: Triggers in the studio

Mesh and rubber Roland heads I've heard of but can't say I've ever heard of a "solid plastic" roland snare before (google yielded no results). I'd be curious to see any pics if you have them.
And...

Re: Thoughts on YouTube Covers?

Well my vids are in no danger whatsoever of being removed in that case ; )
This makes me think though- what is the cut-off point for a video to be deemed "popular" enough to warrant muting/ removal...

Re: Music you don't listen to anymore...

I dare say a lot of people's experience will be similar to yours (ie used to be into heavy stuff until they "grew out of it").
Guess I went the opposite way- used to listen to rap/ Top 40 before...

Re: How do people get your attention when practicing on your home kit?

My jam room is built into the corner of the garage where the light switch for both the garage light and the jam room light are connected so it's the flashing light trick for me too (saves the missus...

Re: Thoughts on YouTube Covers?

Youtube doesn't assume responsibility for copyrighted material and it's almost impossible to police anyway as far as I know.
Never had a drum cover removed before but sometimes certain songs I've...

Re: Thoughts on YouTube Covers?

Multi-camera angles, foot cam and a professional- looking video are always nice but in the end it comes down to doing the song justice and playing it as accurately/ fluidly as possible (with a few...

Re: Does your family understand?

Another lucky one here.
After being "pushed" into starting drum lessons by my mother (after the age-old banging on pots and pans thing) they ponied up the dough for my first kit after 3 years and...

Re: Playing music no one else wants to.

Didn't he clarify enough in Post #3?
Can definitely identify with this when I was playing in a covers band (pop, rock, Top 40 , etc)- music for the masses stuff.
The heaviest song we ever did (or...

Re: How far are you willing to travel for practice

Just wondering if you'd consider placing your own CL ad and let people come to you (probably not given your shyness/ weirdness with new people)?
As you say, you live in the biggest city in the...
