Well, I'm not exactly keen on Rush. Why? because Neil Peart always seemed to play like a drum machine. There was never any swagger in his playing.....the very Reason I started playing drums was John Bonham. Just for the hell of it, I'd like to see Peart tackle "Living Loving Maid". :p I'm...

That means it is time to get a new drummer! When Video games are more important than music - it is time to move on. Tim

I personally like the Alpha's. No cymbal is guaranteed to never break. If you have a problem breaking cymbals, you may need to reassess your cymbal placement (as in height and angle) and the actual strike you use. I prefer very thin cymbals, which give you a bit more of a darker, or low end...

I think this is the best bet as well.

Wait a minute.... You said it is "...Her unique, although sub-standard drumming that is..." So if she has Sub-standard (which means below the avarage) then why would she even be mentioned in a BEST DRUMMER list? If you are going to throw up a female drummer, for God Sakes - pick one that can at...

Hey Man! Don't Mess with ABADON! I'll say this for him - I saw Venom live, and he was a lot better drummer than Peter Criss was. LOL :p TIm

It was pretty common to use studio musicians back then, particularly for drummers, and especially in England where the Studio scene tended to be a more..."unionized" situation..think about it - Recording Engineers over there used to have to be required to wear a White Lab Coat, because it was...

Why would you need Drum Tablature for anything AC/DC ever did?

I have seen them in person. In a word: Junk. They don't even have enough lugs on the drums to properly tune them. Their 16" floor tom has 12 lugs on it. That is 4 less than even the cheapest Pearl , Tama, Yamaha, or whatever name brand. Do you know why those brands have 4 more lugs on them...

Do you sell HB drums? Those things are pieces of SHIT! They aren't worth throwing on the trash heap to burn in the dead of winter. Tim

It may not even be a kick drum you are hearing on a CD. I created the most awesome kick drum sample - you know what it really is? I bounced a basketball on a concrete floor in my garage, and then I mixed that with a sample of me bouncing the ball on carpet. The carpet added the "thumpy" sound...

No, you're bassdrum's resonant head doesn't need a hole in it. Do you cut a hole in your snaredrum's snares-side head? Well why not? If you want more thump? Put a pillow in it and tune it up a bit. Thump tends to be higher in pitch than most people tune their kicks these days. (people are...

Man, I haven't been on in ages. Well, since I haven't been able to record, and my drums are packed away, I've been spending extra time working on my voice. My Bass player has convinced me that I need to become our lead singer. So I've been pumping Iron, and burst a blood vessel in my right arm...

Mick (my bassplayer) told me that wherever Leatherwolf practiced was where he hung out. Tim

Hey Phil! You want to know what's a trip?!?! Robin Graves saw this posting - and E-mailed me yesterday! I've been trying to find him for years. That is freaking awesome! Tim

They put the clear coat on and hit it with a hand torch, you can create a lot of neat finishes like that. Tim

Ahh Grasshopper, if you tune the bottom head higher in pitch - they will sound like Tympani, tune the bottom head equal to, or lower than the pitch of the top. Tim

Regarding the sound difference, that really hasn't been true for any of the drums made in about the last 20 years. Back in the early 70's and prior, the wrap was actually fit into the shell as a part of the shell - it was literally seamed into the plies of wood, and then glued and pressed into...

Contact Sennheiser. btw, great choice on the mic. The 441 is one of my favorite microphones. Tim

Hmmm, I wonder when he switched to Ludwig? That Green set that he played for the last 10 or so years was a Slingerland. When Slingerland came back out, he was one of the only guys with an Endorsement deal with them. Here's a picture of his signature series line...
