As a #drummer I like to talk shop about #drums, but the active forums for that are heavily loaded with reactionary old white men, including the moderators. The amount of blatant bigotry is ridiculous, especially because they are all very skilled at using euphemisms so they don’t break the usual rules against politics and religion. We can be talking about the thickness of the plating on a certain era of metal shell, and somehow they manage to insert coded racism, every time.
Found a neat closeup drum cam of Chika drumming during Hanabie's Denver show. I usually like watching the drummer in any live show, but Chika was really far to the back of the stage at NYC. (Was able to get a good view of Matsuri's guitar playing though!) It's cool to get a really close up view of Chika rocking out from this angle! :AquaYeah:
Just got word that Sam Ash is closing in King of Prussia and they're having a liquidation sale. Now, I don't strictly need a double-bass drum pedal in my capacity as a church praise band drummer, but...I mean, c'mon.
I’ll post a #cymbal video later but I was thinking for #CymbalSaturday could every one of you post an example of one of your favorite cymbal sounds in a song or tune? It doesn’t even have to be a drum heavy track, just something where you heard a cymbal and said “oh hell yeah!” #drum#drums#drummer
Well it’s #CymbalSaturday although I think not enough instances are federated with #drumstodon for many people to see our hashtags. Anyway I found a long-sought hard-to-find treasure, a Sabian Jack DeJohnette signature Encore 22” mini bell ride. How’s that for a mouthful? Basically its a thin light ride with a heavy patina coating, and tons of dense hand hammering, including on the shallow small bell. It sounds essentially halfway between a traditional and a flat ride. I love it! #drummer#drums
