“ ‘Count me in’ comes out August 24. The preview features a frenetic Beatles performance and Abe Laboriel jr. raving about Ringo. Looked good! Should hopefully be 81 minutes of fun. Really looking forward to this one - anyone else?

All these years later it continues to be my alpha and omega of drums

Any votes for Inception yet? A Christopher Nolan masterpiece. Hans Zimmer's soundtrack is gloriously apocalyptic and a must-have for any soundtrack aficionado.

Not sure I agree with that transcription of Wot Gorilla. Where are the ghost notes before/after the snare hit on 3; they give the groove texture and a much funkier feel. Without the ghost notes it's almost a completely different groove

I’ve had the same one for years and never even touched the out-of-the box factory settings.

Stewart Copeland was a huge fan of Jordison’s abilities, daring to put him on equal footing with Buddy Rich: Buddy was the Mozart of the drums. I would say that he and Joey Jordison, of all people, have taken the technique – the finesse, the detail – to the highest level. And in both cases...

For Canada, here is what the federal government and Canada Post uses (the "Internationally approved alpha code" column would directly answer your question). Province/Territory Standard abbreviations English/French Internationally approved alpha code (Source: Canada Post) Standard...

Not too many surprises here, but cool to see this topic get some attention from the larger music community. And let’s give the drummer some for replicating the grooves really well! 👍

Sorry mate - getting mad “let’s get physical” vibes from your hero’s look 😄

He’s definitely got a Ringo thing going on. Love his sloshy use of the hats and accenting the off-beats. it’s almost like he’s dancing behind the kit - tough to replicate. “You don’t know how it feels” is a great example of this.

I’m assuming said rock outfit included a cape? It’s a proven fact there’s only one way to rock and capes are a necessary (and often sufficient) ingredient. 🤘
