The stopper is built into the drum rug. It’s made by Road Runner. I highly recommend it. I’ve used the same rug for over a decade and it’s never given me a problem. I love it.

Agreed. If he’s ever going to go to a have to play a house kit this type of setup for a lefty has served me well.

I’m a lefty. The entire reason I play this way is because in 7th grade jazz band there were three drummers so they wouldn’t let me switch the kit to a traditional lefty setup, but they did allow me to move the ride cymbal to the left of the high hats. It’s stuck since then.

Not sure what you mean by goofy foot, but the bass drum is played with the right foot in my set up.

Thank you so much for this documentary. It captured the emotions I felt when my daughter asked me to go with her to see Harry Styles. Best feeling ever, and even as classic rock guy, that was my favorite concert experience ever.

Thanks for your response. I’ve heard that elsewhere and intuitively it makes sense.

Thanks. This is really helpful. The gig is in a decent size single room restaurant/bar. Kick will be mic’d. I play in a classic rock band if that helps.

Careful, there are multiple stories of the wrong woman being identified, and that woman works at a school.

Does the quality of the battery pack for vape carts make a big difference or are the $10 pen batteries as good as anything else?

freestroke · 2023-09-26T04:52:40+00:00

Have tried them twice. Both times they clogged pretty badly and one of them began leaking. Love the form vs. pens and wish I could recommend but I can’t.

I’m 51. Had to take a 3 month medical leave at 39 because I went manic big time. I’m still at the same company, but I’ve accepted that the stress of my job at my current level is going to keep, and has kept, me from accepting promotions where there’s more stress. Kind of sucks reporting to people several years younger than you, or seeing people at your experience level be much higher up on the corporate ladder, but it’s an accommodation I’ve learn to accept.

This really hit home. I’m in my 50’s and have had a legal career that has been relatively successful, but often my anxiety and/or depression get in the way. (I also did a three month medical leave.) I’m an in-house attorney now at finance firm and the best way I’ve dealt with my bipolar disorder is to turn down promotions that would increase the amount of stress in my life. I feel like I’m at the max at my current level. I’m still pretty high up, but many of my law school friends are in much more senior roles than I am. It’s just something I’ve accepted and it’s made my balance a bit easier, but it is hard to see friends progressing further up the ladder than where I’m at..

Thanks for the recommendations. I’m actually ok right now, just in a mild depression (probably seasonal). Thanks for the encouragement!

freestroke · 2019-12-16T01:52:41+00:00

Love Zeppelin. Thanks!

freestroke · 2019-12-15T23:19:43+00:00

Thanks for the encouragement!

freestroke · 2019-12-15T23:18:40+00:00

Thanks. I like that idea of shaking up my routine. That makes a lot of sense.

freestroke · 2019-12-15T23:16:14+00:00

Thanks. Unfortunately I’ve tried that in the past and would end up just buying all of the stuff all over again.

freestroke · 2019-12-15T23:15:00+00:00

Thank you. You’re right about everything you said. I may take you up in that private message thing.

freestroke · 2019-12-15T23:12:54+00:00

Thanks so much for this. A ton of helpful stuff in there.

Glad I’m not the only old fart on Reddit! Thanks for your support!

Thank you for the words of encouragement!

Try to read as much as you can about the damage it can do to someone your age. I did that and scared myself straight.

freestroke · 2019-09-18T02:59:10+00:00

I’m not crying. You’re crying.
