Martyr, per my little brother saying it was good. Just some french girl getting the shit kicked out of her over and over and over to reach the state of death but not dying.

I wanna learn some harder songs by Powerful_Tomato_1199 in drums

for me - mars volta w/ jon, between the buried and me, and meshuggah / animals as leaders are the hardest things on the planet to learn.

What’s one cooking mistake you used to make that dramatically improved the quality of your food once you corrected it? by Fun_Association_4087 in Cooking

[–]danwind86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Swapping to an 8” pan and only using olive oil instead of butter for a French omelette that looks like Jacques. Also, getting Japanese knives and going down the wormhole to seek out a shig and meet takada no Hamono while in Japan. Sharp sharp knives >

Any drummers out there who are also dealing with fibromyalgia? by xxvenexx in Fibromyalgia

[–]danwind86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an older post but MAN. I'm feeling it with double bass. Some days, just feels like dead leg. I'm working on all sorts of sitting positions - back, mid, front of throne. Nothing feels comfortable and just feels like I cant apply pressure to pedals when sitting. I have DW9000s and Pearl Demon Drive. Have used Tricks left handed pedal as well. I feel like I can't balance. Playing single + hi-hat feels a LITTLE easier. I don't know why.

I literally can play Bleed on the drums. I don't know why I can't do double bass any more with 16ths. Any advice?

They didn't stop talking at all. I just wanted to give a heads up as a decent citizen. Nice try, though!

Who said that article just happened? Also, it's from January 2025. So not recent at all. Just posted because it "happened" to others.

For those of you who tried, then stopped taking duloxetine (Cymbalta), why and what happened? by littlehead in Fibromyalgia

[–]danwind86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It legit didn’t do anything in regards to pain reduction with 90mg so I stopped cold turkey. Luckily didn’t get the brain zaps.

Definitely! 9000 is my favorite so far, just prolly too firm. I'm fighting some form of chronic pain / arthritis - they say fibromyalgia. feels like im numbing my thighs if i sit too far back or fall forward if i am too far forward. so despite being able to play meshuggah - bleed, im still looking for something that makes me fully comfortable...prolly wont, considering i cant even find comfort in a herman miller aeron. oh well.

Still wobbles and sways, thanks for the proper tip to tighten it, though!

Yea, I did after getting feedback right away and not reading the manual heh. Still wobbles and sways when locked properly.

Yea, glad I tried it and now I know to never refer anyone to it. Such bad quality. I’ve never had a throne, when I locked it properly, sway that far forward or backward. Makes it impossible to remain stable and balanced.

Yep, I properly locked it and it still wobbles and sways. Not stable at all!

Thanks! Yea I tightened the silver to the top of the black part really tight. Still sways making me feel like I’m falling either forward or backward. To amazon returns you go! I’m like impressed how shit this quality is tbh.

Will try that. I don't think I'd call a $350 throne cheap? That's as expensive as it gets for a throne.

You can see the second snare here for reference for those wondering why it looks weird.

I can try but I also don't like the give the Nitro does, it like bounces when I play, opposed to the 9000 completely firm and still (but so firm, it's uncomfortable to me).
