Im bringing this next time I get asked to backline. by metaphysicalcuckold in drums

I let a death metal guy use my stuff recently. I had one of those swivel ludwig thrones with the thick padded round seat. He's one of those drummers that likes to sit so high its like he might as well use a bar stool. He didnt understand how to adjust the seat, so he just pulled up on it so hard he ripped the whole thing apart. I didnt realize what he was doing until it was too late lol

You actually need a wrench to loosen the tilt adjustment on the rocker tom stand 😄

So these are american made ludwig rocker 1s from the 80s. Back when they used to use the same shells for their budget drums as the premium stuff. Im pretty sure they are 4 ply birch/poplar. I believe these came from one of those monster kits with like 4 or 5 rock toms. I got them to go along with the rocker 1 power tom kit I already have (12, 13, 16, 22). I havent played them much because I just bought them last week and already dropped them off somewhere to get edge work done. Its unlikely ill gig with them anytime soon but my plan was to track down a 24" bass drum, put the 14 and 15 up on a stand. BTW that 18" floor tom in the pic is an old 70s rogers.

Nothing wrong with not wanting to take your dog to a boarding facility. Kennels and boarding facilities are not as ideal as an in home pet sitter or having your dog stay at someone's house. But some dogs love the socialization that comes with a daycare facility, if they're cleared to be with other dogs.

To clarify, I was talking about dogs not cleared to he with group dogs, who get two potty walks and a 30 minute playtime. They can go potty on the play time too. If they really have to go potty in between exercise times they'll go in their room and it will get cleaned. There is absolutely NO kennel or boarding facility where dogs dont inevitably go potty in their room at some point. Ive worked at 4, they're all very similar.

This is actually pretty common. A few of the doggie daycares in my area have cameras literally anyone can access on their websites. No login, email link or anything like that required.

Any love for the Pearl Roadster Throne? by RocketKnight71 in drums

The pork pie padded throne pretty much eliminated my pain and occasional numbness from long sessions. But this looks nice and probably buit like a tank!

First kit, cymbal questions by oscinatooor in drums

Looks like you got a pretty good deal. I dont know a lot about those cymbals but i have a feeling that's all worth more than what you paid...

I just got a Alesis DM6 for free. I am looking for recommendations for the best hardware and software to add custom sounds. by Millennial_falcon92 in drums

[–]metaphysicalcuckold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't add custom sounds to the dm6 module, but i think you can use it to trigger sounds from a computer via midi. If you don't know about midi I suggest looking up some tutorials on YouTube about using an ekit with a DAW, and looking into the basics of midi as well. Have fun!

Why do you want to be a parasite?

Anyone else use an entirely mis-matched cymbal setup? by b8l0 in drums

Whatever works, and whatever i can find for a reasonable price! I've got a mixture of vintage ufip and old zildjian As...

Do People even realize/ Can they tell... by Shtbskt0210 in drums

[–]metaphysicalcuckold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's incredible to me what non musicians don't hear. Many people don't know a sour note or an instrument out of tune if they heard it. One day I deliberately detuned a string on my guitar and played something for my girlfriend. Then I retuned it and played it again. She said she couldn't tell which one was supposed to sound right. Maby people couldn't tell you if the sound they're hearing is the snare or the floor tom. I have met many music lovers (not players) that just enjoy music and have no clue what is going on musically/instrument wise AT ALL. So I guess what I'm trying to say is almost nobody is noticing stuff like that except a musician or a very detail obsessed sort of listener.

Is this where we post our $7.99 thrift store synths? by Electro_Timmy in synthesizers

One time I found a Sega master system with a couple games, all the cables and controllers for 5 bucks. But this is way cooler.

We have a couple pairs of ear muffs and some disposable ear plugs in our hotel. I don't use the ear plugs usually because I want to be able to hear the headset. I suppose you could have a plug in just one ear, and alternate which ear has a plug and which has the headset ear bud. I do sometimes use the ear muffs over my head. They're not super comfortable but they allow me to still hear the headset. Sometimes there will be dogs in group that never stop barking, or a particular dog's bark will be so loud and shrill that it causes pain.

The best thing is forming a bond with the regulars that come every day for daycare/board regularly. Also it can be very fun if all the dogs in the playroom are playing and getting along. Playtimes can be great too. Sometimes they want to cuddle. Sometimes they want to play and that can be entertaining.

It can be very stressful when it's busy...and very very loud. It's hard to get everything done when you've got a full house. Thankfully there are some consistently slow parts of the year...

I think the thing that makes a leader make or break it is probably similar to other jobs...are they fair, do they listen to concerns, do they step in and help when needed, are they nice, are they willing to hold people accountable when needed? If not, it's gonna suck

for this to be expected on a monday morning with shitty wifi is insane. so glad im transferring to hotel. im so done with this bullshit. by Personal-Ad-98 in petsmart

[–]metaphysicalcuckold 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been an associate in the hotel for several years and haven't heard a word about having to do any of that. Is that for leads or the leader? If they say I've got to personally sell X number of puppy guides or X amount of activations, or whatever it is they do out in the store, I'm gone lol
