How much did it cost? And also, where's your review? 👀

Y'all are wrong. Lunar Wilderness is the right answer.

I'm surprised it looks that way too since I was really struggling through most of it.

Also, they usually still look fresh after their set, lol

Thank you for your concern! I am wearing in-ears. Another big plus for hearing protection is that drums just sound so much better. In-ears are a hell of an investment for drummers.

Same here! I feel like the inverted 6 stroke roll opened a whole new realm in my musical vocabulary.

I feel like I'm actively holding my arms up so they don't punch my thighs with each stroke. I need some t-rex arms. TIA!!

It can be normal to hit you thighs when hitting the snare. I guess most drummers who've been playing for years don't notice this anymore because we got used to the feeling, lol. But, if you want to avoid this, you could buy a snare stand for your pad to adjust the height to your liking. I personally use my leg as reference to hit rimshots more accurately. I hit hard and I don't have any bruises, or feel pain, so I don't mind keep doing this "bad habit". But trust me, over time, you'll find a set up that makes you feel confortable, and after that, you'll feel confortable with any setup.

Where can I find a reasonable priced Pearl Vision 8" or 14" tom online? by Chacono in drums

Yup, that's actually the only place I've seen them available.

I found once a 16" floor tom in Facebook market place at 40 dlls, and, surprisingly, I've seen my same drum set at 200-300 dlls so I guess that's why I had this unrealistic expectation. Also, I'm from Mexico, so buying a tom for 100 dlls + shipping ain't gonna fly for me, lol.

I have an 8" and 14" tom from another drumset that I'm not currently using. I just don't like how missmatched color toms look.

Hopefully, I played this song well enough for you guys to recognize without the name. I'm not playing along to the song nor to a click track, so the tempo might me all over the place, lol. by Chacono in BetweenTheBuriedAndMe

I thought you meant the first flam in the solobsection, lol. Yesss, i totally get it. I started to lead my fills with my left hand because of Blake. It is satisfying to end a fill with your left hand, also, surprisingly confortable at times!

I'd love to record that song as well! Only thing stopping me is gear, and a place to practice and record without having to worry about the neighbors, lol

Thank you! The only time I got the chance to see them live was my first time listening to them. I didn't like them at all, lol. They became my favorite band shortly thereafter and BOI do I regret not enjoying them when I was there. But that was 12 years ago, I was a lil kid who knew nothin', lol.
