I'm actually a very controlled, wristy player who doesnt thrash around much on the kit. My techinque is decent & my playing style looks pretty effortless on the outside..
but..
man, do I sweat like a pig in a sauna. Summer, winter, indoors, outdoors, air cons or not..
I am so drenched at the end of some gigs, and sometimes even in during the latter half, I have the hardest time having keeping the sweat out of my eyes.
It is sometimes also very embarrassing to walk off stage with my shirt sticking to my 'man boobs' ( thanks Jay ), me being the only one in the crowd who looks like he's stepped out of a boxing ring. Everyone else is so darn smooth, dry and sweet smelling.
A towel and an extra shirt are now a part of my gear, but the day isnt far when I will succumb to the ridiculous idea of carry an exta pair of Jockeys too.
Do any other instrumentalists sweat the way we do? Cant think of any...
Anyone else have a rant about drummer sweat?
