    "Awesome Video"

    A buddy of mine sent me this you tube link. I recommend wearing headphones or a good sound system for the best listening experience. BTW if you dont get a bit teary eyed or at least get goosebumps, IMO you dont have a soul...lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JK_DOJa99oo&feature=youtu.be

    Just finished a deal with the drummer from "Dead Tapes" Manchester England who will be recording their next album soon at the Carbon room studio in Birmingham and he just had to have my spare 18" floor tom.

    Could I use a triangular bass drum port?

    Its just hard sometimes to get a perfectly smooth cut start to finish, especially on smaller circles and anywhere you stop and start again can be prone to tear at that point. Hey, thats a really good idea. Heating up a piece of 1/2" copper water pipe to make a circle in each corner then cut...

    Could I use a triangular bass drum port?

    Tried it on an old head last night. Worked perfect, nice clean holes. Thats the whole point of a forsner bit to cut a clean edge. A regular drill bit would chew it up bad but the bladed edge of the forsner bit will cut the circle out of the thin material before the bit goes down far enough for...

    Could I use a triangular bass drum port?

    I cant see a problem but I think I would take the head off and put it on a block of wood and use a forstner bit to cut clean circles in each corner before cutting the rest of the triangle.

    What direction?

    Been talking to a couple guys about putting something together and short of a tribute band have come up empty. We talked to a bunch of the local bars, pubs, cabarets etc and have been told that the classic rock is played to death by a million different bands ad its just not drawing any people...

    Drum Gloves

    I dont care for the gloves. I find I dont have as good of feel for the stick and have a tendency to drop them when playing light. I also dont care for the rubber grip coating or rubber roll on grips, the stick doesnt move in my hands at all and causes blisters plus I find my hands sweat more...
