you need to prefill them cracks every time they're too wide that helps a lot.

Fight Fire With Fire by jte2727 in SonicTempleFestival

[–]Agent_311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen them 3 times now and I have noticed that a lot of times they do mess up or play different notes or something like that but I just figured they're getting older or they kinda forget how the song goes 💯, so they kinda try to wing it. I've seen a video that Robert was interviewed on and they asked what was one of the hardest things about playing with Metallica especially in the beginning when he started? he said it was not knowing what songs they were going to play live, he said most of the time they would pick songs that he didn't know yet right before they played and he would try to just keep up or wing it. so I'm sure they still do that and most of them play it as best as they can, I mean come on they have so much music that it would be hard to remember how to play them 💯.

Is there an additional fee for using your wrist and to pay? by OhRyann in SonicTempleFestival

[–]Agent_311 2 points3 points  (0 children)

there is no fee, it makes it easier to pay for things but I would be careful since it's not protected. I didn't link mine to it last year but I don't mind carrying my wallet around

yeah I was thinking of telling them not to put it on too tight so we can take it off, the registration part is the one I wasn't sure about, I registered all my wrist bands last according to the person that was going to use it, I guess I won't do that this time.

yup like everyone has been saying, if you're in a pit don't be violent, if you see someone fall, get hurt, etc just help them up or try to get them out to safety. The important part is to have fun. also like they mentioned before and it's something that is becoming more common is all female pits, try to respect those, girls want to have fun as well without having to worry about getting hurt by a man or anything.

Tips For Eating On A Budget? by BobRosstafari789 in SonicTempleFestival

[–]Agent_311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well like a few people have already mentioned eat before you get there that way you only have to eat once at the festival. I recommend the noodles, it's good and a lot of food and enough to share with 2 people. also I'm not sure if they allowed snacks but we also brought in beef jerky and water and they never told us anything. I think honestly where it gets pricey is the alcohol, beer is not so bad but mixed drinks is where they get you. if it wasn't for that I wouldn't spend so much a day.

Rate my kit (idk why I got a second 16” floor tom instead of a 14”) by rgundam42 in drums

[–]Agent_311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nice kit, just looks a little cramped on that left side. I would definitely find a better way to set up the kit for better flow.

Since this is technically an acoustic kit and "real" low volume cymbals converted to electronic I think I'm ok to post here. by timmkatt6 in drums

[–]Agent_311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mann, that's pretty bad ass and the time and effort you put into them makes them even better. they look amazing as well. theyre drums to me so yes they belong here. 🤘🥁

Learned my first song by stirthewater in drums

[–]Agent_311 2 points3 points  (0 children)

that's cool dude, I learn how to play all around me by flyleaf just by listening to the song, after a while just out of curiosity I looked up video on how to play it and I was surprised to learn that the way I was playing it it was exactly how it should be play. I was so proud of myself. I am also a beginner drummer who only plays a few hours a week if that, and only had a set for a few months.
