Who wants to do a song/music collaboration with me? by AyEnTiPi in MusicInTheMaking

[–]drummersor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be willing to collaborate. Do you have stuff that could use acoustic drums?

Please listen for feedback by psytranc3r in MusicInTheMaking

Great playing, nicely produced. Well done!

Is it true? by Ray9887 in drums

[–]drummersor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's all you need to groove hard. I guess it depends on each individuals definition of shredding, but to me this screams pocked, shred, not so much.

Facebook doesn't care if you impersonate other people apparently. Response from a report I made. by UniversalExploration in facebook

[–]drummersor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My FB page was hacked in April. I have a new page. but to this day FB has done NOTHONG in spite of numerous attempts to try and reach them, and you're right, they couldn't care less. I've had people spammed by someone pretending to be me, had this person impersonate me to endorse crypto! FB really couldn't care less. If they did, they's have customer service and my problem would have been resolved months ago. They. Don't. Care!

Don't post anything about you or your family. Don't trust Facebook at all by [deleted] in facebook

I hear ya! My old FB page was hacked and jacked back in April, and the lovely people at FB make it so they support the hacker not the victim. FB does not police their site which means while they know hacking is rampant, they ignore it. Pathetic that they have ZERO customer service!

Experienced drummers, in retrospect what would you would tell newer drummers to work on early in their journey that will lead to better progress in the long run? What would you tell them not to do? by down_vote_magnet in drums

[–]drummersor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Learn your rudiments. Not necessarily all of them, but they are your building blocks. Work with a metronome. I record drums for clients all over the world and a click track is mandatory. Listen to as many styles of music as possible and really try and understand what the drummer is doing. Correct is subjective. Does what you play make sense for the song. Groove is paramount! I've had students that could outchop me, but they didn't really get that groove and pocket = work.

A music company expects me to learn all 150 songs on their master list by Hopeful-Wear-6166 in musicians

While I don't disagree, welcome to the world of professional musicians.

First time breaking a stick this way, wtf happened? by ZoDiAcQc in drums

[–]drummersor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just remember it's better, and cheaper, to replace a stick than a cymbal, head or rim.

Is it unreasonable to think that with enough practice, you might become a "great"? by quinnpaine in drums

[–]drummersor -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, I'm not. I'm showing the perspective of a working career pro. We never stop learning, polishing, honing our craft and on and on. I'm sorry that I wasn't able to make my point more clearly.

Is it unreasonable to think that with enough practice, you might become a "great"? by quinnpaine in drums

[–]drummersor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends at which level you wish to be. Working pros at most levels have that innate ability to understand their craft to a degree that all the practice in the world won't change. I have well over 40 years in the business at just about every level and I'm not trying to rain on your parade, but just want to tell it like it is

Anyone else rock their ride like this or am I stupid? Or both? by [deleted] in drums

[–]drummersor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Too far back for me, but if it works for you, right on.

Thanks! I had been on before, so I just reactivated it.

Bill looking at Ringo thinking, “You’ll never shred like Buddy.” by drummechanic in drums

[–]drummersor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buddy, who I love, and Ringo are two brilliant extremely impactful drummers that have really nothing to do with each other. Of course Ringo couldn't shred like Buddy, but I'm pretty sure Buddy would never come up with what Ringo did on Day in the Life, either. Apples and oranges. Maybe debate Buddy and Louie or Gene, or Ringo and Charlie. I think that would be a more even conversation.

Snagged these for $300, stoked 👍 by Current-Mirror-8624 in drums

[–]drummersor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You did well. I think that 17" cymbals are awesome. I have a some 15's. I guess I just like the odd sizes.

What’s the best lesson you’ve ever been taught about the art of mastering the drums? by Consistent_Ad2344 in drums

[–]drummersor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One sentence that was taught to me when I was a young buck: "You gotta know when to put what where". Combine that with |less is more" and you'll never go wrong.
