So, hello!
My passion is music. Especially all things drums and drumming.
I live in the East Coast. Semi retired with 3 kids and 2 grandkids.
A lot of stuff to look at in this board, so I'll get right to it.
Cheers!

Percussion is good. I used to have a hard time separating on my hands the different beats. It's not easy and almost like playing a Piano.

I hope you have a thick skin; many a snowflake has perished within these walls.

I'm not much of a snowflake. Although around certain girls I've been known to turn into a puddle

I've played drums since I was little. When I'm not playing I'm driving everyone crazy tapping on everything.

Paradiddles have always been hard but once you get it they get fun.

I learned rudiments when I was in grade school. Did a little band and some military stuff. Paradiddles, double and triple paradiddidles. flam-taps, single and 2 stroke rolls.
Lots of fun. Then got influenced by the Beatles so Ringo is probably where it all started for me.

My children are all grown and gone. 2 grown women, 1 grown man. 2 grandkids, 13 and 7. I dont get to see them much. They live in South Carolina, and while they're always bugging me to come down and visit traveling is expensive.

Great, I just started cooking dinner and started humming "Little Drummer Boy" LOL. I was like, "Where did that song come from?"

Crosby and Bowie, which is exactly what Drummer boys avatar would look like, if they had a child together.

I figured someone would actually tell me where the song came from. I was just sayin I couldn't figure out why I was singing it. THANKS!

Thought of you, Drummerboy . . .
Listening to Hypnotized by Fleetwood Mac.
Mick's steady, understated cadence is both haunting and perfection.
