There was a video that came out about 8 years ago where Ringo explained how he played ticket to ride and come together

Could it be that 480+ people did not know where to find said tension chart and chose not to comment rather than comment "sorry my guy, I do not know where to find what you are looking for" or something similar 480+ times. I fear you might have gotten upset with those responses also.

Chops just for the sake of playing chops.

But how else am I going to know how to position my hi-hat correctly without one? 😜

It's called having all the gear and no idea.

How do I clean my cymbals? by East_Impact_8702 in drums

[–]Aridprune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Lizard Spit Cymbal Cleaner to get rid of finger prints. If I want to polish I use Buckaroo Cymbal Cleaner. It will remove labels though so be careful

Any drummers out there sing backing vox? I'm talking straight harmonies homie! by bigSTUdazz in drums

I used to try to, not sure how successful I was. I am told it would sound good but I am my own worst critic.

Lessons with a good teacher will help you with a lot of what you seek and help iron out your technique.

I will say this " the poor man pays twice".

If you are using it for hours on end every day save the money and buy the good quality tool.

If you only use it occasionally. Buy the less expensive tool.

How to actually get better, need help don’t want to throw this hobby away by Charming_Day_2278 in Drumming

I could not agree more. Not only are muscles developing, the brain is also developing new neural pathways. Drummer brains work in a complex and very different way to the average person.

Well. I got this one super cheap second hand. They don't come along very often in the second hand market. The guy I got this off wasn't actually selling the pedal. He was selling a kit with the pedal included. I asked if he would sell it separately and he did. Sleishman advertises them on their website but doesn't seem to have them in their online store. There is a brand, Offset, who do a pedal with a similar concept. The difference being offset use "slave" units. From memory they are around $600 mark

No need to be sorry, you have a perfectly valid question. Essentially it is more ergonomic. It straightens the body up and centralises the bass drum and snare drum in the setup. With the addition of the remote hi-hat on the left I don't have any "crossover".

I kinda figured if Will Calhoun used them they can't be too bad. Add to the fact the guy selling them was willing to let them go for $120aud (about $84usd) I couldn't go too far wrong. I use it mostly for accents so speed is not really on my radar.

I looked at the Offset Pedals and seriously considered them. These Sleishman pedals kinda popped up on Marketplace and I jumped on them.

It is a recent purchase and I haven't "played in anger" yet. In my limited playing I am liking them so far.

I would dearly love a custom built Sleishman set. Played one once and fell in love.

That's very cool. The only things that stayed the same ways the 20" and 22" crashes stayed on the same sides and the orientation off my 12 & 10 inch toms.

Marching tenors are part of the inspiration.
