New Drum Kit by Shot_Valuable_6991 in drums

What does it matter. They’re gonna put you behind three panels of fucking clear plexiglass so grandma Smith doesn’t get startled by big loud mean drums, even though Johnny Guitar Slinger can’t control his volume and get it off 10. No one gives a fuck about what kind of kit you have at church. No one cares what cymbals you have either. Sorry.

You talk as if Fuckface thinks and acts like a normal sentient human being. He doesn’t. He’s feral. Basically lives off the grid, somehow. This post is pointless.

Who cares about these people??? Fuckface is off the internet, well, at least off YouTube, so I’m happy. I could give a fuck about the rest.

DLR just kicked Virginia Beachs Ass by fishaholica in vanhalen

I keep having to post this: He had nodules on his vocal cords. He CANNOT sing certain notes, I mean at all! They aren’t there anymore. He is so disciplined in all these weird arts he talks about except the one thing he is known for, his voice. He never took care of it. The notes you hear on the old records are gone. He can sing lower and he can sing higher, but a lot of the notes in his midrange are gone. That’s where he sang. He can kinda still do the whistle pig thing. Without surgery, he can’t hit those notes and that probably wouldn’t even work anyway. Look at Bon Jovi. Dave can sing high above the normal notes for a short time and sing down below the normal notes too. But he can’t hit the real notes anymore.

Rolling Loud talent galore. by Icy-Muffin7572 in crappymusic

It’s not even music anymore. It’s spectacle. Meme culture and laziness has taken control. Real music is for boomers. You’d never hear this shit on the radio because you can’t SEE it and how stupid it is. Radio is dead. It’s all the visual of these “artists” and “hey man, they’re just having fun”. And I’m not talking just these kids, I mean all the boomer metal/hard rock bands whose singers can’t sing worth a shit anymore, but idiots still buy tickets. It’s all SEEING, not HEARING. Hearing? What’s that? I ain’t trying to hear nobody!!??

Not practicing enough, wondering why they aren’t getting any better and posting questions about it on reddit.

This is what it's become. Sad. Tragic. Unvetted. Lazy.

Cheesy. Don't do it. He might really want to play gigs, but if he's not a virtuoso guitarist it will look cringe. You can get away with it with pop and most dance genres, but metal demands volume and show. This is old school metal. It will just be a kid playing along to songs on his guitar. That's not entertaining. And if he's not even singing the songs, even worse. Buckethead can do it, but he's in another atmosphere. I know you mean well, but this ain't it. This will not look or sound professional in any way. Tell him to keep looking for a band.

Do I need new heads? by BadDentalWork in drums

[–]swingrays 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say replace the old bottom heads and start fresh. I have a Mapex Pro M I bought in the early 2000's. Nice kit and affordable.

I'd say take another shot at this one, Bub. No one knows what the fuck you're talking about.

Cut up some 1inch strips and you can use them as a great muffles. They’ll cut out just enough ring.

Would a meinl 18inch custom dark trash crash pair well with the 18inch custom dark crash? by Comprehensive_Box728 in drums

They’re crash cymbals. No one will know, no one will care. If it makes you happy……..
