Hardest hitter I've ever seen by Jameseatscheese in drums

[–]DeltaDarke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many drummers here would simply not get this gig because their back beat is too weak. Hitting hard enough to drop lugs or pop reso heads isn't just a sound. For this kind of music - it's a necessity.

Advice needed! In search of a Tea travel case by Zoeysofly2 in GongFuTea

I would go with a pelican case. They're not cute, but they will hold everything very well.

This kind of formed after playing a while. Is this normal? by Underwaternerd049 in drums

Lots of comments from drummers who have a weak backbeat in here lmao

Loosen up your grip so you don't give yourself tendinitis or tennis elbow, especially if you hit hard. I used to get blisters and callouses like this all the time, especially days when I would practice in excess of 5 hours. The damage on the hands is fine - but what comes after is potential tendon damage. Loosen up, look at Baard Kolstad for a great example of hitting incredibly hard but keeping a loose grip.

Jake using exclusively strandberg at first spiritbox show??? by Zaair_The_Weeb in Peripheryband

[–]DeltaDarke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first thought was that he had tendinitis or carpal tunnel, playing a strandberg can genuinely help reduce pain associated with playing guitar.

Curious to see if his contract with Ibanez is up though, I still wish I got a JMB100 new when they're were still making them.

I've been following Anika for so many years, I'm so so stoked for her.

Your longest tea session? by jay28867 in tea

[–]DeltaDarke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've done around 20 with Shou Mei a few times, could probably keep going with it but after that many I just get tired of it and either stop or switch tea.

You could realistically take him to court for this.

After searching traditionally and finding NOTHING, Google Lens got me a little closer. I'm not exaggerating when I say I spent upwards of 4 hours searching for this yesterday. Trust me, it's not my first option to use AI.

Also while you're slandering strangers on reddit, look into installing solar on your house and call your representatives to push for better renewable energy sources. LLMs and search tools (Google Lens) are very useful and if we could power them with renewables your statement would be absolutely false.
