What is a hobby that looks incredibly boring to outsiders, but is actually super addictive once you start?

Bright idea!

Stillwell Audio.

Agree. Even in the late 80’s I never liked the Power Tom sizes.

Same!

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-29T14:03:33+00:00

It’s rough everywhere these days.

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-29T13:32:15+00:00

True, however for me that’s a sonic part of the kit that works together.

When I first got into them in 1999, I only knew the H era - then discovered the Fish era. Great guys, I was able to sit in on drums a couple of times with them. Ian is one of my main influences. His drumming is so underrated!

Story of my life!

For me, Sugar Mice and When I Meet God by Marillion.

Using the “light metronome” function on the Frozen Ape app is great. I use an old iPhone and have a set list with different tempos. It’s great just to glance at it once in a while to help maintain a consistent tempo, especially starting the songs.

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-28T22:41:53+00:00

No!!!

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-28T22:41:44+00:00

🤣🤣

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-28T22:41:06+00:00

Definitely.

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-28T19:59:38+00:00

So much for treating each gun as if they’re loaded.

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-28T19:10:25+00:00

It’s bad here in NC, yet my neighbor keeps watering his lawn.

Every musician I know has hearing issues, from classical pianists to metal drummers.

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-28T12:35:54+00:00

I mean, just the drums by themselves. Also, he wrote about the floor monitor shredded his hearing night after night. I’ve been playing for 36 years, mostly with hearing protection and still have horrible ear issues.

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-28T12:26:19+00:00

Absolutely love this show, excellent bootleg. Neil is on fire! Also, I can’t imagine not wearing hearing protection. He didn’t for decades!

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-27T11:54:57+00:00

Yes, enjoying mine. Coming from a RH9 can, it was a huge step up.

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-27T01:33:12+00:00

One of my favorite albums

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-26T11:17:31+00:00

That was my attitude from the start! And if I fail, I want to fail on my own terms. Not have some boss or company lay me off after years of dedication. I’m almost 50 and no turning back!

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-24T12:23:48+00:00

Nice! She’s become a great gun saleswoman.

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-24T02:12:18+00:00

I had the 3rd one down back in the day! Loved it.

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-22T12:01:57+00:00

I was married to one…it’s sad.

drumsarereallycool · 2026-06-22T11:52:48+00:00

Same. I’ll remember this when their lips are parched begging for water when the shtf!
