Try the quotebutton instead of the thanks eh!
I will try that, have some old sticks I thought I might try knurling for a bit of extra grip.(diamond grip pattern machined into steel handles on tools etc)

 

I never used double bass drums. I've played on other people's double bass sets. Ginger Baker was awesome! I was really influenced by John Bonham, who only need one bass drum, but sounded like he was using two!

 

sure!

 

Hey there Iron, or should we call you slasher
Nice sig!

 

Excellent sig, iron!

 

damn that is sweet. Lindsey is HOT!

 

she's got a nice rack

 

Today I would use drum gloves on a hot stage. They didn't have them when I played big crowds. Grip tape can lose its adhesive from the sweat on your hands and come right off your sticks!

 

Thanks guys! Shall I use it now? I've an avatar ready for.

 

It's up to you.

 

Ok then let's go. Up for the change.

 

He had phenominal foot speed, but he had a couple of other tricks.
He had a pedal made that hit the drum when pushed down, & hit it again when you lifted your foot.
I have seen a diagram on how it was done, apparently really dificult to play accurately (unless you are a drumming god).
He also did use a double pedal at some stage, I saw a video a while ago (must try to find it again) & you could see it, but normally just the single pedal

 

I've been very fortunate. And eclectic!

 

No point in getting stuck in a grove..............
Why not do something different if you can, even if the only thing relating them is the fact that it is you that is doing them

 

The great jazz drummers of the 1930s-1960s also used a technique where you push the foot forward for the first stroke and pull the foot back/flick your toe for the second stroke. You need smooth-soled shoes.

 

I've see variations of that first pedal.

 

ok dudes, I'm out. take care everyone.

 

Throbbn, I'll trade you some of my experiences for your job and salary.

 

I often play barefoot, sometimes i will grip the chain on the pedal between my toes, more traction that way I guess

 

I can't really join that conversation because I don't play any instruments. I don't have the reflexes for... I just don't have the beat.


Change is done now. Here's the real pic I used. I found it today on Nuts.co.uk, another sexy hall-of-fame with 100 pics.
