Don't you hate it when....

Larry

"Uncle Larry"
You get your stick tip caught between your clamped down hi hat cymbals

You miss the snare head on that all important first backbeat right after the climax of a solo

And the all time classic, your beater gets caught in your pant leg.

Any other stupid grievances?
 
I wore some really torn up jeans at a gig last week, & the butt end of the stick got caught in them. I'm not really sure how but it did.
 
I stick the tip end of my sticks in between the head and the rim. Does anyone know why the rims stick so far above the heads.?
Here is a photo from a new set posted today, and quite a gorgeous Signature set by the way, and look how high the rims are
above the heads. That small drum is a 6 inch tom and they are hard enough to hit as it is.

That never happens to me!
I simply miss the Hats all together! Then the stick gets caught underneath the hat pies on the upstroke.
 
Sorry PFOG couldn't resist. I'm in one of those moods. On the MFB thread, Bob said he was an idiot with recording software (Bob, not MFB)
I was gonna say something like, if it's any consolation Bob, you're an idiot at other things too...but I thought he might take it the wrong way. I only say that because I think he's cool enough to joke with. But don't let him see this, OK?
 
When I think that I have one of my cymbal stands closer than I thought...and first time to hit the crash I miss it.
 
GD you're right! Those rims is high! Holy stick angle Batman!

I'm on my tractor now! 17MPH. I have to stop at Wal-Mart first and get some ammo. Then I have to get some diesel for the tractor, Now, Lets see, I need some vodka for the long ride to PA.
Oh, theres a KFC, It will be a while, but you better watch out!!!

Oh Man! This cop say's that I can't drive my tractor on the interstate while holding a shotgun, drinking vodka, and eating fried chicken while posting on Drummerworld!

I hate it when I forget to tighten my bass drum beater and it falls of the pedal during the first
song ( darn memory locks ). Or when I do a solo break and loose a drum stick and hit the guitar player, I actually like that ha ha.

OK, I told the cop that I was a drummer. I told him what you said about me.
He said, "Now I understand! My brother is a drummer" He is escorting me with the strobe lights on his cruiser on. Three days from now you will be a dead man! Don't go anywhere. Stay where you are.

Polly is gonna eat this up! I can't wait to see the cartoon!
 
Bob you slay me.
A diesel tractor. Man that must be a serious tractor.

It's a 3 cylinder, 35 horsepower. 8 forward speeds with shuttle shift. 4 wheel drive. (every vehicle that I own is 4WD. Are you surprised!) The backhoe has an eight foot reach. The loader has a 1/2 ton lift capacity.
Just a homeowners toy.
