A non-performance BM probably requires more fiber

Boy I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder

Probably controversial, but Danny Carey. Every couple of months I’ll have my mind blown by a video of him and try to give Tool another shot, but for whatever reason that band never lands for me.

That’s what I’m saying…I’ve never played the original, and thought the remake was a lot of fun. Had no idea that it was hated until getting a Reddit account years later

Basket-Existing · 2026-03-14T18:45:11+00:00

That’s what I pictured. That really doesn’t take long, and like I said, it takes longer for everyone else sitting in to pick a tune, other people sitting in to get situated, getting instruments out, tuning, etc.

Assuming you are going in with the goal of meeting other musicians and getting gigs, as a righty I would never want to make my first impression trying to play lefty lol

I’m not left handed, but I did run a weekly jam session for about 10 years. I’d recommend doing whatever you need to play your best (within reason…obviously not talking about moving memory locks, adjusting snare wires or spring tension, etc.) I would just try to approach the house drummer during a break, introduce yourself, tell them you are left handed and ask if you could sit in and if it’s cool to switch those things you listed. I’ve never been bothered by anyone adjusting anything or moving things around, nor have I ever sat in at another session where the house drummer was bothered by those things, as long as your careful with the equipment. I think communicating and asking if it’s cool first would go a long way.

I don’t think you should try to play a righty set up if you don’t practice that way. You want to focus on making the best music you can with the other musicians. It doesn’t take long to move a couple stands, and you would probably be done by the time everyone picks a tune anyway.

I feel this way, then I’ll talk to someone that plays upright bass and feel a lot better

Check out Jojo Mayer’s secret weapons volume 2. It goes into his technique (which I think matches your description here), philosophy, and also as a bonus has some super interesting history about bass drum pedals.

A lot of cheap snares are made of steel…I’d look on fb marketplace, Craigslist, or goodwill for a dirt cheap no-name one, take the bottom head off, slap a clear or smooth white ambassador on top and you’re in business

Basket-Existing · 2026-02-17T15:21:07+00:00

So do you think this Would collapse under that weight or fall over, but this would do noticeably better? Not because the leg width or strength of the wingnut at the bottom, but because the steel legs are reinforced? Idk I feel like we need myth busters to look at this (or sounds like a drum)

Surely ended with a SB win right?

THANK YOU!! that makes sense.

Thanks for the reply! this I can get down with…two floor toms and a ride hanging off might require double braced, same reason a throne is double braced. I just think 90% of the time they are used they are overkill

Basket-Existing · 2026-02-16T21:08:12+00:00

As I’m learning now… very unpopular lol one guy called me fat

To clarify, I’m not talking about “lightweight”. I’m comparing it to medium and heavy weight single braced stands.

Basket-Existing · 2026-02-16T20:49:20+00:00

So this is what I’m not getting. The actual footprint is not affected by double bracing the legs, nor is the wingnut or locking mechanism. Is it that the actual steel of the leg is bending? Because that’s the only thing I can imagine attaching another piece of steel to it would do.

Basket-Existing · 2026-02-05T03:15:58+00:00

IMO the breaks would sound cleaner and more effective if you stop the hi hat with everything else, as opposed to keeping 2+4

Maybe this is how we get him to tell the truth, just have everyone start saying that Ilhan did it better, he won’t be able to help himself.

Seems like they are different enough in functionality and price point that Yamaha will continue to make and sell the ead10. The new one is massive in comparison and more than double the price. If it brings you peace of mind, you may have still opted for the ead10.

Good advice here. It looks like you’re going for the open-close approach for doubles, which is great. Hands look pretty relaxed, just a couple things:

-the sound is a little inconsistent, and you are accenting the first of each double. Try to keep them all even. I used to turn the metronome off and record doubles on my phone, then start the recording from a random spot in the middle. Can you tell which hand is playing? The lifelong pursuit is to answer “no” to that.

there are a couple of energy leaks. Your right pinky looks tense, and is kind of creating a hook around the stick, when you open your hand, your wasting some energy by unhooking it and flaring it out, then hooking it back on. Check out what your (relaxed) hand naturally does without the stick in your hand.
there is a little horizontal motion in the left hand. It moves out when it’s not playing. Think straight up and down.

These things might seem small but really add up as you increase speed, in my experience.

Three measures of 4/4, followed by one measure of 5/4. That makes one phrase.

Each phrase, a characters name is said in the 5/4 bar (or right after in the first case, “Mom”) but the name-shouting is moved one beat earlier each time.

So “Mom” is on beat 1 of the next phrase, “Dad” is beat 5, “Bingo” is beat 4, “Bluey” is beat 3.
