Hey I'm Jon from Wales, UK

I play Drums and Guitar :) I played drums for 2 years up until about 2 years ago, I have been writing and recording a lot of songs, and now I feel the need to get back into drumming

I wanted to buy a kit again to record drums on my songs but I have been offered a place in a band so I can't wait to get jamming with them

I mainly listen to rock, with a bit of folk thrown in for good measure

My fav bands are Kyuss, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, Tool and a couple of others

Peace out ;)

Im gonna do that too. I never post in here, im an R+M freak. Im Joe, ive been playing drums for 3 years and enjoy playing stupid DW 5000 series hardware. Never anything else. Ever. Die Iron Cobra/Eliminator fan boys!

Anywho, my faveoruite drummers are Neil Peart, The Rev, Michael Van Dyne and Travis Smith.

There you go.

:)

Thats still one of my favorite snares, so much ring and overtone.[/QUOTE]

totally... that one really rocks!

I'm Scott
I'm 16 and i'm from Essex in England
I've only been playing 12 weeks (only had my kit for 7 weeks) and am onto grade 3 :D.
I listen to Def Leppard, The Darkness, Status Quo, Guns n Roses and various others.
I've got a 2005 pearl export EX fusion with a set of Zildjian ZBT's (getting ZXT ROCKS soon).
i regularly jam with my buddy who plays guitar and we did paranoid for our friends the other day. I'm soon to buy some remo emperor ebonys.

Hi all! :wave:

My name is Fiona, I am a school teacher and I live in the Isle of Man. (Home of the TT!. I am 24 years old and enjoy listening to all types of music.

I played drums when I was at secondary school - played for about 2 years but then sort of just gave up... I think it was because I didn't really 'get it'.
Anyway, I took drumming up again in April this year. I bought myself a Yamaha DTXpress electronic drum kit, as noise and space were a big issue. I started playing for a local band who play with other 'learning' groups (it's called a music workshop and we tour round the Manx pubs, basically playing and enjoying ourselves).
I've recently ordered an acoustic kit as I found it really hard to do a gig with an electronic (sound comes from the PA which is far away - not the same response etc) so I'm waiting for my brand new Yamaha Stage Custom Noveau to arrive next week :p

I'm now playing in another band called the Rejected Barbie Dolls...having a great time!

I've just bought a guitar as I fancy learning a bit. I think it will as to my musical ability and have a positive impact on my drumming (I hope!)

Nice to find out who I'm chatting to here.

Erm…. Not sure what else to say now…..

Cheers guys!

Umm... Its pretty good, i prefer his Live At Budokan one better. But thats because of the point raised earlier, that his bass drum totally owns his snare.

My faverouite snare of all time is probably David Garibaldi's on Tower Of Power's live record.

I got bored over the weekend and decided to come on MX for a few hours :)

Nice to see ya around wayne.

Thanks, No avatar or User Title, Huh?

Nope, goin stealthy :)

Yeah No avatar is better in alot of ways. It actually draws more attention to oneself.

Haha.

I'm not sure If I'll stick around, I hadda talk College Basketball with the gang.

Just thought I'd poke in and say hey.

Stick around :)

It's a possibility :)

Well a Happy Birthday to me! I'm getting money, so a drumming purchase or two shall follow...I'll keep you posted.

Happy birthday dude! Enjoy it. Post up some pics of the new gear :thumb:

Well, my name's Drew, i'm 15, i've been drumming for about 2 years, more like 1 and 4/5. I'm in a band called Mack, and I'm seriously thinkin bout quitting cause our singer sucks. I like alternative and indie and more underground stuff, not pop. Pop is *shivers*. Anyways, so happy Easter everyone (I know it's tomorrow)!

Hey, pop can be good. Just listen to Kylie Minogue! :lol:

Actually, naw, late 80s early 90s pop was pretty good. Then techno and hip-hop started mixing with it, and you got what we got now. Erg.

Meh, everyone go listen to some Kraftwerk :P

yeah, money's always good

i still got at least 7 months till my birthday.

Luckily im setting up an ebay account tonight...and selling over $1000 worth of stuff within the next week.

The VW Golf GTI advert with the Singing in the Rain remix and the body popping is the best advert I think I've ever seen. And to make this drum related, the remix has some pretty cool drumming, even if it is most likely a sequencer.
