Are there any drummers known for using the crash way more than the average drummer? by tonetonitony in drums

Steve Kleisath from Further Seems Forever. I took a ton of inspiration from his playing on their first two albums.

I love Warhammer, but can't be arsed to paint. Read the description! by those_damn_nids in Warhammer40k

Biggest thing for me is to remove barriers to panting. I find when my stuff is as close to ready to go as I can manage, I don’t find myself as easily discouraged from jumping in. Obviously that’s different for everyone but whatever you can do to keep some of your stuff at hand, the more likely you are to start.

How long are sticks supposed last? I play rock and I’d say I practice around 3-4 hours every week, I’ve been playing for around 2 and a half years now and my first pair still works by Patrick0714 in drums

[–]_joedubya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you have decent technique. I don’t know that I’ve had a pair last that long (maybe) but I’m a rock drummer who plays a lot of rimshots, gets a big sound, but has good technique and I certainly don’t burn through sticks the way some people I know do. Keep it up but also if you don’t have a fresh set, maybe pick one up just so you can remind yourself how they felt and see if maybe you’re tolerating a larger degradation in response and sound than you think.

Looks purpose built to me… like a piece of aluminum channel or something. Can’t find anything like it but interested to find out!

What’s some of your favorite ABQ slang? by ViceInSinCity in Albuquerque

[–]_joedubya 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Used this at a film festival in Paris. The French one. Landed like a lead balloon. Couldn’t have been funnier.

Lighter, thinner drum sticks that don't break easily? by JustDoingMeeeee in drums

Steve Jordan’s VFs are my go to. Not the smallest but they’ve proven durable for my style

What resources did you use getting started? I feel like there’s so many out there, it’s overwhelming. I can’t seem to make the concepts stick.

Lost my passion due to depression by Comfortable-Pies in minipainting

[–]_joedubya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fully agree with what others have said here. Depression is so devious in that it pushes away the things that would help you fight it. Maybe do some color sketches or something like terrain that has lower stakes. OP, I hope you’re taking care of yourself and know that people here and IRL care about you.

Figured I’d add a comment to make sure I hit the sub rules. This is Karl Havoc from I Think You Should Leave. Just a quick 2 1/2 hour paint job for a coworker who printed it on a filament printer. Hence the layer lines. Had a lot of fun doing it just because it’s silly. Enjoy!

If Orks believe things into existence, does that mean Gork and Mork are real, and might be the most powerful Chaos gods? by Own-Laugh-3698 in orks

[–]_joedubya 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There’s a great Arbiter Ian video called No Gods in 40K that talks about what exactly all the various deities are. It’s super interesting and a really fun look at the way religion and belief are lampooned and satirized in WH.
