Great link Tam. . .what a lot of drummers forget is that every beat/lick/solo concept comes back to a rudiment - if you don't know rudiments, you're putting yourself in a tough place to advance musically. When I get around to making a links database

Glad to have you as a member, Andy - Regarding lessons, I think that they can be very beneficial to a certain point, but once you have a laid a good foundation, you really don't need a teacher as much as you need a coach (someone who can show you t

Wow, great kit, DeepDrummer! Yes, I'm curious about the mounting, too. . . does a rack like that increase the resonance of the drums over the conventional stand-mounting? Welcome back, btw.
