Yeah we do pretty regularly by the old book of face. I know he was studying post-grad music stuffs not sure if he's playing regularly too. Honestly, his and your chops have always been the most impressive on here to me. I remember one of your mp3s you had up that started with a press roll, and at first I thought it was static. You still quick?

Jeffs Carrot · 06-01-2012, 08:30 PM

I'm surprised you still remember that man, I'm amazed actually! That was sooo long ago

I still play quite a bit... Often shuffling between many different instruments. I try to get some drum playing in daily to keep myself in shape.

Still have to move the floor tom to get in there?

I have a good memory haha

Jeffs Carrot · 06-01-2012, 08:44 PM

Been practicing my high jump technique to get in there haha

Wow, playing drums once a day sounds amazing. I'm closer to the once a week schedule right now. Hopefully that change once I'm done with finals in a few days.

I've been doing 1.5 hours a day for about 3 months now. It's great. 30 mins of ride work, 15 mins of pad work to stick control, 15 mins of brush work, 30 mins of e-kit based shedding. Weekends I don't follow that schedule and will play free stuff on both kits, but still try get a few hours in.

Gah. That's my dream, I finally got a pad for my apartment, so hopefully I can get into the routine of doing something daily. I never thought I'd have any regrets about having a gig at least once a week but it really limits the time available for working on techniques. Practice time is spent with the band..

Pearl2004 · 06-02-2012, 03:24 PM

thanks man, we are excited as can be, we're checked in now, she woke up to her water breaking this morning, and contractions, they will probably give her some meds in a bit to move things along faster...hospitals have killer wifi btw haha

Jeffs Carrot · 06-02-2012, 03:28 PM

Awesome! The lady doing ok? That birthing process can be a bitch...

I rode 14 miles earlier and feel semi-ok from it. Dirt not rode.

Steffanwolf · 06-03-2012, 06:17 PM

Nice!

You know those days that just rock start to finish? I just had one.

Spent the morning with my girlfriend. Spent 2 hours this afternoon with my sticks and a pad. Then had awesome BBQ with the folks. Then had a kick ass practice with the side project where we actually finalized two songs and started another. And then went boxing for the first time in a year (and didn't die) and now I am just about to sit down with a growler full of local brew and listen to some new records I bought.

Sorry for the self indulgence but I'm in such a good mood I felt the need to share...
