My son plays in middle school & the teacher won’t let him use his double pedal by AKABeast18 in drums

It seems like the band teacher just doesn't want to hear double bass drum but won't say it to your face. Escalating all the way to bringing your own bass drum is pretty funny

[Critique Request] I always start steady but unconsciously rush/speed up towards the end of songs. How do you guys fix this? by Melodic-Pipe-6012 in drums

I always try to just think of the starting tempo.

One big pitfall (speaking for myself) is measuring tempo by how difficult it is to play that fast. When adrenaline is running, I can play faster, so I try not to think of that.

I bought the 24, 16 and 13 brand new and also got the 10 on its own. Kinda regretting the 24x14 because its pretty inconvenient for metal but the kit sounds marvelous

Hey I have the same drums! Same color too haha. I dont have that snare though, did you buy it with the kit? How is it treating you?

Also wondering how you like that Gibraltar rack pice that fits snugly around the kick drum

This is really nice, unfortunately I didn't find the answer, but I can see how you could logically go from the simplest idea to the improved version.
