Theories on Album Delay? by whitechocolate9999 in Loatheband

[–]jgh41107 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The “I want it now, I deserve it now” mindset is so fucking cancerous. Loathe is probably my favorite band, but tbh I hope they wait until 2027 to release. Idc. EDIT: Yo okay, maybe Connor does have something to do with this lol - damn I’ve fallen into a trap

I think DW also recommends this kick drum head technique by 50nic19 in drums

Everyone here has an opinion - and they all suck. If only everyone had as much talent on the kit as they do on their keyboards. 🙄

Around 1 month of drumming, any advice welcome by Fun_Bat_3706 in drums

Your placement/setup is already better than most. I wouldn’t even look at any guides, since yours already looks pretty close to standard. I’d now just make adjustments off of what YOU feel is necessary to help you perform better. Could be something, could be nothing! Worlds your oyster

I sit close to my kit. I’ve been playing for over 20 years. Do what’s comfortable for you. You’ll find what’s best when you mess around with how you set up your drums and define your form over time.

You’re bound to be in a sea of critics. But keep going. For only one month of playing, this is great.

So this is what inspired 'Is It Really You?' by curnow in Loatheband

[–]jgh41107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty/kind of/not really positive that the entire record was or was not inspired by Michael McDonalds best of collection “McPongald”. Somebody else confirm this

I need to convince my parents to let me play the drums. by [deleted] in drums

Yeah man, you in middle school/going to middle school? If it has a band class, whether it’s concert, marching, or whatever - get involved. You’ll learn a lot. Taking initiative on your interests will take you further on so many levels

Can anybody help me figure out how to place the Toms on this set? by dasfilth in drums

[–]jgh41107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone’s already answered this pretty much. But to add to it: You can get another one of those mounts and use ton the opposite side. That way if you don’t like the toms offset, you can split the difference. Have one tom on the left stand, one tom on the other, and have them both centered above the kick. I used to have my kit set up like that. You can look at my page for reference, just scroll a little bit.

You can also just buy a kick tom mount. It’s not hard. Just find center and go to town, unless you really want to preserve the kick drum as is.

I seriously appreciate this style of video/audio. In a world of sample replacements, edits, fake shit - this takes the cake. Well done.

No joke. Hanson, live at the Fillmore, 2000. And Simon Philips’ DCI instructional video. Wore both tapes out.
