I know :D

I wish I was good at sports :(

Question for Joel: It it normal for my left hand to have no finger strength when I play drums? I'm trying to get through Stick Control and my left hand is just terrible. :-\

TheBigMachine 09-06-2006 01:54 AM

Just do more left-hand based excercises. I know Im not Joel, but Im still a drummer. Stick Control is a wicked mad book, and by the end your left hand should be fine. The excercises that you find hardest are the one's you should practice most to build up the strength.

And yes it's normal, because most of the time your hitting out all the 16th's on the hat's and what not with your right.

Permanent Solution 09-06-2006 02:00 AM

Yeah but they're all balanced exercises in there :p

All of them are hard at any decent tempo though :-\ I can do a hybrid open roll in that I play all 16th notes when I do it, but it ends up being like RRLRRL I just never noticed heh. It's terrible though because it feels like I have bad technique or something. Like on the pad, left and right make 2 different pitches. I wish I could afford a teacher.

TheBigMachine 09-06-2006 02:22 AM

It's not always bad technique, it's just if your naturally right handed, then your going to be stronger with your right hand at everything. I've never seen you drum so I cant pass judgement on your technique, but that book is where it's at, just keep working it.

Permanent Solution 09-06-2006 02:39 AM

Hmm, yeah, I s'pose. I'll just have to start practicing more like an hour+ a day like I used to, but just on stick control.

TheBigMachine 09-06-2006 02:51 AM

Your going to get mega bored of it. Make sure you do alot of kit practice as well then.

Dies Irae 09-06-2006 04:58 AM

So this morning I woke up to find my brother passed out on our dining room floor.

I'm tired.

pix plz

Dies Irae 09-06-2006 05:06 AM

No batteries for camera. :(

Ross 09-06-2006 05:20 AM

bah. People passing out usually leads to comedy :P

In comparison, my hangover from monday night is finally over. Absynth is horrible. Gogol Bordello are one of the best bands ever. I start my new job at the RPA today; where I get paid an excessive amount for giving farmers government money.

/news

TheBigMachine 09-06-2006 05:35 AM

Sounds good. Get money for giving money, that's where it's at.

Ross 09-06-2006 05:39 AM

Indeed. I've heard it's deadly boring, but for £8.67 an hour normal (£13 an hour sunday overtime!), I'm more than happy to be bored a few hours a day.

TheBigMachine 09-06-2006 05:43 AM

Getting payed to be bored is even more wild.

Dies Irae 09-06-2006 05:51 AM

Being banned sucks.

Especially for "posting in spam threads".

TheBigMachine 09-06-2006 06:13 AM

El Oh El I am so stupid...

So a torrent site I am registered to is having it's first birthday, and to celebrate they are having a fre leech weekend (Means I can download whatever I want without having to send the same amount back). I'm aiming to fill my 160GB external harddrive with so many collections.

Untitled 09-06-2006 04:24 PM

Storm In A Teacup 09-06-2006 05:04 PM

Sup, pop-punk. Voting thread for 75 vocalists and lyricists most likely tomorrow, but if I'm not on then the next day definitely.

ThisUserIsAPipebomb 09-06-2006 05:14 PM

So I haven't been on in a couple days due to school stealing my life, combined with a healthy dose of practicing for multiple bands and a girlfriend, and yet, I am now just really nice, instead of a jewel in the rough.


That's cool.

Dies Irae 09-06-2006 05:19 PM

lol @ kripes smoking pot and then talking about on here because the internets validates everything

Storm In A Teacup 09-06-2006 05:20 PM

Who are you?

B 09-06-2006 05:40 PM

[QUOTE=Dies Irae]lol @ kripes smoking pot and then talking about on here because the internets validates everything[/QUOTE]
Because everyone who talks about real life on the internet is trying to validate themselves.

Dies Irae 09-06-2006 05:41 PM

Pretty much B.

So today I walked outside, jumped over the Great Wall of China, made Pluto a [I]real[/I] planet, and beat God in a game of table hockey.

B 09-06-2006 05:46 PM

Danny way jumped over the great wall of China..

..on a skateboard.

Storm In A Teacup 09-06-2006 05:46 PM

So I'm supposed to not talk about real life? What would there be to talk about? And why would you even say talking about real life on the internet 'validates' what's being talked about?

And again, who are you? Lim?

B 09-06-2006 05:47 PM

Of course it's Nick.

How can you not tell :/

Unless I'm mistaken, but I don't believe any other regs here are banned atm.

Dies Irae 09-06-2006 05:47 PM

Jeez what's with everyone here?

I know my psuedo-joking sucks but still wooord.

B 09-06-2006 05:48 PM

I'm having a sh[U]i[/U]t night.

Among other issues.

Dies Irae 09-06-2006 05:49 PM

I had a pretty bad day, but I had a dentist appointment and now my teeth are just as radiant as my shamefully beautiful self.

Storm In A Teacup 09-06-2006 05:49 PM

Lol, sorry lim. :(

B 09-06-2006 05:49 PM

I need to get my teeth cleaned. They feel gross no matter how much I brush and floss :(

Storm In A Teacup 09-06-2006 05:51 PM

I just used white out on a guitar pick and made my own Coheed and Cambria guitar pick! :D
