    Drummers should be banished to their own Island!

    On my acoustic set I use Vic Firth pads (drum covers) and instead of sticks I use Cool Rods. It makes the moise barely noticable outside my house. My wife purchased a set of Roland Electric drums for me (bless her heart) for our anniversary. Now the only think people hear is the wack of the sticks against the rubberized cymbals.

    Let's just get going here.

    • How do you tell if the stage is level?
    The drummer is drooling from both sides of his mouth.

    • How can you tell a drummer's at the door?
    The knocking speeds up.

    What's the last thing a drummer says in a band?
    "Hey guys, why don't we try one of my songs?

    What to say about Carmine Appice? I saw him fairly recent at a drum clinic in Hollywood. I have to say that I was rather disappointed about this "living legend". I will cut him some slack since he's getting rather old but seeing him live, I was quite underwhelmed. His timing was off, pocket was shallow, his constant half fake twirls lame, and he spent most of the time telling us about how John Bonham ripped him and his beats/moves off. Not quite what I expected from the hype of this guy.

    On a good note, I do love his book " Ultimate Realistic Rock: Drum Method" and it's considered one of the better drum books out there. I guess I can't completely shred this guy...no pun intended.
