This is gonna be great. Jason is one of favorite drummers working today.

 

Finally splurged and bought a Roland SPD-SX. stoked on it

 

A while back, Zach from Jimmy Eat World posted some samples of his kit, but now I can't seem to find them. Anyone have them/want to help me google?

Also, any recommendation for drum samples? I've got an elec kit and I'll be triggering them in logic.

 

That Sound has amazing samples, wide range of the genre wise, too.

I just joined instagram: @heplaysdrums. Planning on keeping it music-only posts of grooves, fun lessons for the pad etc.

Who are some good drummers to follow? I'm looking for guys like Jason McGerr from Death Cab who posts a lot of videos of them recording or practicing.

 

Calling all Coheed/Eppard fans. This is rad because he gets into the purpose and thought behind the drums and song writing. There's also a commentary-less version, too.

 

popping in here because I bought a new gigging case and I'm so stoked. carries cymbals, snare, kick pedal, other small things. so great

 

oooo, how much was that? Seems very useful.

 

Typically goes for $500, but I bought it used on Reverb for $260. The guy never opened it or used it. Whole situation is really bizarre

 

My dream is the write a drum part where I’m playing on a closed hi hat in the chorus, but I don’t think I’m capable of it. Too advanced

 

just another reason why One Headlight is one of the best songs ever written

 

If I can't be a professional touring drummer, I would love to be a tech for a band or drummer I really admire.

 

first time cutting the hole myself. the actual cut was kind of a mess, but thank god for the rings to cover it up lmao



don't sell my feet pics online, but if you do please give me a cut of the rev. thanks

 

Looks good! the hole, not your feet
Portholes are deceivingly hard to cut cleanly.

 

thanks! it was definitely tricky to cut. whenever I have to do this again, I may go with heating a can and melting it through the head instead.

 

The easiest way to do this is to stick the part on the inside first, then use that as a guide for your blade.

 

popping back in here because I just remembered something from my first week of college that I still think is very funny for some reason. My first year, I was going to school for music education and while I was already a drummer and had been for a long time, I was assigned a drum teacher because it was just part of the whole thing. Anyway, my drum teacher told me he had a Phd in drumming and I not only did I not know what that meant, I thought that was the least cool thing you could ever do with drums, and I think it made me think less of him as a drummer too

I dropped my music ed major 2 weeks later lmao

I apologize to anyone who has a phd in drums

 

Thanks for the bump, just posted some drum cam footage from a recent show earlier today actually!

 

Sounding good!

 

I've just started listening to the DRUMS? podcast and am absolutely loving it. Hosted by 4 dudes that have played for Say Anything, Anberlin, Copeland, Grouplove, Dashboard, and others. They've had awesome guests including: Riley from Thrice, bassist for Phoebe Bridgers, Josh from Coheed, Tim from Manchester Orchestra and a few more. If you enjoy listening to relatable drummer complaints, tips and tricks, touring life, recording hacks etc., I HIGHLY recommend it.

 

i think i'm 2-3 episodes behind but listening to them talk about how much endorsements have changed over the years in the episode i'm on has been fascinating.
