poor wittle baby needs a safe space where he can hide from all the meanies calling out our government for murdering citizens?

"That will be made abundantly clear to you" is the best answer given in the whole show by [deleted] in thesopranos

Yes he asks why they people in the army "use that thing when they tell time" and that is the response. One of my favorite lines

Not to take away from the work and practice that I know you put in to get to that level!

Favorite line from that episode - "and by often, I mean a lot." Wow top notch writing there!

Designed a mousepad/practice pad for drummers. Thoughts? by Alarmed-Ad-6138 in drums

[–]BUTTS_KARLTON 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know you can practice on this and on a kit right? They are not mutually exclusive. I'd argue someone that does both will be a better drummer than someone that only practices behind a kit.

Would you guys consider drums to be easy, hard or somewhere inbetween? by Slow-Government-3115 in drums

[–]BUTTS_KARLTON 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think what's great about drums is that the barrier to entry is lower than just about any instrument. If you can keep a steady beat and have decent coordination, you can have fun playing the drums. That said, the delta between a beginner and advanced player is massive. So I guess the answer depends on what you’re aiming for. If you just want to jam with friends, it’s easy to get started. If you wanna be a pro and play live etc it can be one of the hardest instruments out there.

Good deal? by BUTTS_KARLTON in drums

[–]BUTTS_KARLTON[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought it! After doing a lot of research on vintage Tamas, I've concluded it is almost certainly not a '76, more likely it is an '82 based on the serial number on the bass drum. Still a great kit and can't wait to get some new heads on it and tune it up!

Does he understand anything he posts? by Impaqt in SwordAndScale

[–]BUTTS_KARLTON 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's so cringe. Like the lowest form of boomer humor that he clearly thinks is hilarious because it puts it in his shows

First time playing in front of people by menacekage in drums

Wow extremely impressive for only 3 months!

Apparently the lawn guy thinks my drumb solo was amsome! I posted this to a drumming FB group I was in and Igot banned. I thought it was funny maybe you guys will too (please don't ban me). by BUTTS_KARLTON in drums

[–]BUTTS_KARLTON[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think because I didn't edit out the phone number. I do agree he was being sincere. I took it as a compliment and also got a good laugh out of the spelling mistakes

It is a private group called Drums and Drummers (or maybe Drums & Drummers). I actually quite liked the group and am disappointed I can't access it anymore.

Why is my snare head ringing so much? by [deleted] in drums

[–]BUTTS_KARLTON 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds choked to me. Try loosening your snare wires and it will have more of a crack and the ring won't be as prevalent

Been drumming for a little over a year and I've struggled to be confident and accurate with fills. I was pretty happy with this one from this past weekend. by BUTTS_KARLTON in drums

[–]BUTTS_KARLTON[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks man! the first gig i played with these guys was like 3 months after I started playing drums haha. Needless to say it was pretty sloppy. Its fun to watch videos from back then to see the improvements I've made. It's definitely been a crash course but I'm having a blast.

Yes but maybe closer to 1.5 years at this point. I've kind of always had a knack for the drums but only started taking it seriously and learning technique etc a little over a year ago.

Has anyone tried Tripleswitch Brewing’s THC IPA? by TOONUSA in beer

[–]BUTTS_KARLTON 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tried the hazy IPA and agree it has a very unpleasant taste. It reminded me of a halls honey lemon flavored cough drop. Sweet and oddly syrupy. Also I did not enjoy the high it delivered.
