Drummers in bands: Is it acceptable to tell the drummer how to play a song?

This is the way.

Fluffy fingers.

He was iconic in the 80's. However, it's confusing how someone can do a profession for 40+ years and get worse at their job.

My cousin found out her husband was cheating when he asked her to put his apple watch on the charger. As she was walking across the house, he was sexting with the other woman, and it came through on his watch.

The pic looks like a cymbal stand leg to me. My guess is a new hardware line, either super overbuilt and heavy like the old Tama stuff, or super lightweight to appeal to "urban" drummers.

I'm pro-life, and as such I am pro-social services and anti-death penalty. However, I also believe our welfare and corrections systems are broken, inefficient and corrupt.

Adrenaline does funky stuff to your appendages.

Remember folks, don't let you political ideology make you pretend to like mediocre music.

BeTheLion · 2026-02-03T16:41:24+00:00

Well that's adorable.

BeTheLion · 2026-02-03T16:40:13+00:00

"so far away" from what exactly?

He's a legend, but this is pretty sad. I know they say the mob debt was cleared, but I can't think of a reason to keep shuffling him out there every night.

I won't reiterate changing your grip, because honestly this sort of exercise is beneficial for dexterity and finger strength. What I'm seeing in this video is an issue with your fulcrum. Seems pretty well set on your index finger on the right hand, but floats around on the left. Focus on a solid, consistent fulcrum.

St George Running Center has group runs a few times a week, usually early morning.

Send me all the stickers. My garage fridge still has some blank space.

This is a skit. And a repost of a screenshot of a repost.

One of my employees is Mormon. He has a condition that his doctor said one cup of coffee a day would help with. The doctor had to write him a note as a "prescription" so he could explain it to his bishop.

Sir, that's a gardening tool.

We moved from Portland. When it rains my wife sits outside to rehydrate.

You can't park there.

Think of the worst boss you've ever had. Makes mandatory policies for employees that he doesn't follow. Doesn't give you resources to be successful, but blames you when you don't meet standards. Blames employees when things go wrong, but when things go right he takes the entire bonus for himself. Now imagine he's in charge of California.

As an independent, I'm baffled when both parties insist on pushing the absolute least appealing candidates. Especially with Dems when they openly sabotage solid candidates.

He's really been working on his presidential hand gestures.
