I would like to add and then Move on.... Finally, The Mets are not the first in a category!! Now, It's On The Yankees to claim the worst loss in a World Series Game costing them the WS title. And too boot, Thanks to The Chicago White Sox for eclipsing the Mets' worst total losses in a season...

All The Best of Luck with your Surgery. You will be back pounding the skins before you Know it!! God Bless.

I knew I came to the right Place. THX Guys !! alparrot brings that fact to life. I do try to emulate and achieve those Media sounds which in turn tend to frustrate me. Sometimes the worst part I encounter is after reaching a Good sound (at least to my ear ) on the various Snares I own, then...

As a general "Novice" being a resurrected Player of Drums since 2019 after a 50 Year Hiatus, I continue to "Learn" about this instrument. I only play as a recreation in retirement , about 1 hour a day, I take the sounds produced over seriously. It's OCD at work. How do I know if in my...

Absolutely Can't Blame You. I hate The Yankees. My Father Did and now I do as well for many years. The Mets are always the Struggling Step son (except for the mid 80s when we owned the Town). Losing to The Yankees in 2000 WS was a Killer.

Alas... The Mets are Done. However, it was Fairy Tale season that I'm grateful for. They went much Farther than could ever have been expected. Many JUDOS to Mendoza as 1st Time Manager. He was a Treasure. I guess now I will root for The Dodgers vs Yankees because ..... I Hate The Yankees...

DD I responded via PM !!

How are you feeling now Drum Dame? I watched the both videos. As a complete Rookie to recording, it brought to light how recording drums affect the Sounds of them. As a Hobbyist Drummer at home in retirement, I resurrected playing drums in 2019, after a 50 Year Hiatus[1969]. Since the...

I was fortunate to see my Father enjoy in the 1969 Miracle Mets victory of the WS and their appearance against the As in 1973. He died in 1974 from Colon Cancer at age 50. It was He that influenced me t become a Mets Fan at 11 YO in 1962. Like all youngins playing Baseball at that time, It...

As a Mets fan since their inception in 1962 at 11 years old, I am certainly Elated by this Miracle Team (at least this far). They don't call them The Amazins for nothing!! Only Mets fans really know what I mean. Only The Jets can supplant the stress and anxiety of being fans of those teams...

XXMan, for sure. A different system will be mandatory as the carnage unfolds today as the damages are viewed and assessed, probably in the Hundreds of Millions or Billions. I say this with hesitation and offer no disrespect to the folks that want to enjoy living by the sea..... but living in...

Folks think that Insurance rates have increased for many reasons including Inflation and previous storms that have Re-Written the 100 Year Flood maps, But these Hurricanes will Bankrupt a number of them. Everybody's Premiums will skyrocket. And many companies will falter and won't issue...

I remember Camile in 1969. Here in NY (NYC - Queens at that time) - we dodged a bullet with Her! It struck literally days after Woodstock. I saw tree branches and scattered debris, buy we were lucky as She decided to Turn at the last moments coming ashore. Mother Nature Does What She Does...

Thankfully, Very Thankfully, no more Commuting Traffic Jams for me (unless it occurs on the way t the local Store!) being retired. In my daily more or less 3 hour commutes to & from... I'd listen to a vast array of tunes as the mood struck me. Blood Sweat & Teras, Chuck Mangione, Clapton with...

doggyd, you took that quote of mine from another thread - I think. My reference was to how much I hated working from home in March 2020 due to COVID hibernation except for the cessation of 3 hour +/- per day drives to and from the office. Being able to "look at the Menu" is missed! Still to...

Booker T & the MGs - Greatest Hits. Whatta Treat!

I don't know what drum set (that's we called them in my day circa 1966-67 at 15-16 years old) I had. I purchased it form the Music Store where I had been taking lessons (Flushing,Queens, NY) in 1967. I don't recall the price (estimating about $75 -$100 for piece Set, Hi Hat, and Crash/Ride...

Loved BS&T. Bobby was a tremendous Drummer. You are correct about the exclusion from the original Woodstock Movie and there a few others as swell who didn't care for the way they were recorded . Another Tidbit was a few Bands would not Show Up until they were guaranteed payment in Cash ! The...

Drum Tuning has been an anomaly to me. leaving me perplexed at times. Albeit I'm only a Hobbyist Player of Drums at Home since I resurrected playing in 2019 after 50 Years {1969]. Frustrated by certain things.....Tuning proving to be difficult to me. I would get to certain good places then...

I don't have the LIfe Mag, but I did obtain the renewed and remastered DVDs some years later. The newer remastered DVDs included other bands not in the original Movie and issued DVD. Over the course of the years - I would watch it at anniversary days, but not for the past few years. But I do...
