I played a drum solo.

I didn’t hate it.

Now it’s on BlueSky.

This is an alternative mix for drums on Year of the Boomerang. I think this is better than my previous attempt.

I this is punchy, big, and aggressive. What do you think of it?

www.smackpac.com SmackPac - the new standard in portable drumming. Load in/Set Up/Teardown/LoadOut - the drummer always has the biggest task. This is very clever - especially for buskers and older musicians #SmackPac #PortableDrums #Drums #Drummers #musicsky #Musiciansky #Drumsky #LoadIn/Out

Woke up with this playing in my head. This assemblage of Fear Factor is interesting to me. Gene Holman doing inhuman things on drums, and founding member Dino Cazares back on guitar.

It’s a great album. Their last good album, IMO.

Practicing paradiddles is so annoying. Feel like a 8-year-old choking down broccoli because they're "good for me".

I used to be terrified to play drum solos.

I’ve had some very embarrassing experiences being forced to solo without training or practice.

Now I practice solos often, and I am working on a solo for a song with my band.

Terror became joy, with practice.

The Helios Type 69 (nice) preamp and EQ plugin from Universal Audio is amazing.

It gives drums a bright character, with saturationwhen you drive the input gain of the preamp.

I used it to EQ a short drum track. I’ll share today.

Woke up with Fear Factory playing in my head, so of course I also revived my internal debate about drum triggers.

#drumsky #musicsky #acoustic

This is an emotional argument, not grounded in reason.

I may be a bit of a fundamentalist, but I think that drums are meant to be acoustic instruments.

I wrote a piece about how I found, left, and returned to drums across several decades of my life. You may find it interesting. Check it out on my blog here:

My Journey with Drums
As a small child, I flapped my hands. I still do it, but in private to save myself from embarrassment. It’s probably a stim – a repetitive movement to regulate my emotions or senses. When I was a y…

Just two days ago I learned how to make the hi-hat go shoop, and today I inserted it rhythmically on the "and 4" throughout 911 by Wyclef Jean and Mary J. Blige and I feel AMAZING. #drums #drummer #batteuse #drumsky #latelifedrummer #womanwhodrums

Today I was back behind a drumkit after a 6+ years hiatus.
Great fun, although rusty like hell! 😅

Short clip: Rage Against the Machine - New Millennium Homes! 🥁💥

Loved this yesterday. Today, I’m not so sure!

Put on headphones and crack it up! What do you like/dislike? I want your first impressions - don’t think too much about it!
