[QUOTE=PunkLoserKid]Well i officially feel like ****.

Went to a ska-punk show today. All of the supports apart from one sucked more dick than a hooker. And to make matters worse i came down ill half way through and had to gut my way through the rest to see the headliners last show. If that wasnt enough then i had another great problem to deal with.

Lets start this one with a quick dip into my past. A couple of months ago all my friends had ditched me or left for uni. I had no one. I lived my life alone and turned to alcohol and drugs to try and help (FYI it didnt. Dont do it) and when in a drug induced stupor one day a lass helped me out. We got to talking and i kinda fell for her. We got together and lasted for a while and i was happy. She helped me clean myself up. Then one day outta the blue, she broke up with me. After a couple of days she was back, explainin it was a mistake blah blah blah, and like a sucker, i beleived her. Some stuff happened between us, and i was planning to ask her back out after a show. So jus before i leave for the show, she turns up at my door with a lad saying she needed a place to sleep with him! Needless to say i was devastated. So yeah, i took a turn for the worse.

Now things are on the up again, i had the guy she was with that night talking to me tonight. Talkin about her an **** they've done together. So yeah. Now im on the verge of another breakdown.

I know you guys probably arent interested but it makes me feel a bit better to get it off my chest.[/QUOTE]

If it makes you feel any better she's a skank man. Things will get better though don't worry just push through it and drum, that takes my mind off everything. Sailing does that too, but that's a different thing.

Massik Kretal 09-16-2005 11:42 PM

Hey can someone give me the sticking or just right out everything in the beat. It's the steve gadd one one drummersworld. It plays before almost every clip and it has it's own clip were it is slowed down, but I still dont get it.

poppinfresh 09-17-2005 12:22 AM

i will be seeing steve gadd october 11 at a clinic right down my street.

I just got the steve smith video in the mail off of netflix. I just realized why i was denting heads all of a sudden. I lost my suave touch. Im playing into the drums i hate this dam npad i need an electric. I find the video extremely corny and embarrassing to watch with other people.

poppinfresh 09-17-2005 12:28 AM

oh this is THE video to get when your starting out drums i find it extremely usefull and wish i had this when i started so that i woudlnt go through periods of crap technique. he really explains everything well almost too well at some points. I am extremely pissed off that i missed his clinic now and i will lock myself in my closet and continue crying, i got out for some water but then i had to get on the comp.

poppinfresh 09-17-2005 12:29 AM

it also angers me that after seeing so many drummers none impress me as much excep for benny greb. They all seem to have limits and they all seem like suck to me.

rockindrummer 09-17-2005 12:31 AM

[QUOTE=Double Bass Jim]Haha I heard "ride" cymbal comes to mind first :lol:[/QUOTE]

:lol: I did the same thing too........ Until I finished the sentence and everything kinda click together :p

Juicy_Forlorn 09-17-2005 12:34 AM

I have just returned home now, turns out the person who was supposed to be my ride forgot about me:lol: I just got my mom to take me into town.
When I got there and he saw me he was just like :eek: oh shi, I'm sorry!
:lol:

poppinfresh 09-17-2005 12:35 AM

oh britishboy the tr00 ghostnote is here [url]http://forum.drumshed.org/index.php?[/url]

I went to the soundcheck for the festival im playing at over the weekend and it was pretty amazing. Great P.A. systems and we have a canopy with a 2 foot high stage it looks really professional for something a bunch of asians put together i thoguht they would get some cheap crap but they did a great job. I was pretty impressed. It even had those things that you can climb on so i might take off my clothes and jump off the top of that after th show.

poppinfresh 09-17-2005 12:48 AM

i also like how steve took the time to wear some nice shoes unlike those pictures i saw of him in a magazine with sketchers, those are the ugliest shoes ever made.

styler 09-17-2005 12:50 AM

they may be ugliest but there commercials could be worse....like that k-swiss commercial *cracks up laughing*

"i wear my k-swiss, i wear my k-swiss*

cant believe they thought getting 2 black people to rap that would make a good commercial...lmfao

poppinfresh 09-17-2005 12:50 AM

hahaha
this is the end of disc 1 oyu can either hit the practice room or move on to disc two, history of the us beat haha. He looks like a ten year old making a drum movie whenever he talks.

PowerStamp 09-17-2005 02:31 AM

[QUOTE=sic]the first 6 months of my life, i had to wear a hip brace type thing, where my knees were pushed right up close to my face. this was supposed to form my hips correctly, but it didn't do everything they wanted it to do. it just kind of "indented" the middle part, but the outsides are still pretty flat. oh well, i can live with it.
[/QUOTE]

Dude, I read this and just quoted it and skipped the rest..

Because I was born with a dislocated leg and had to wear the same thing for 6 months! I actually remember it too, it was like basically a white cast surrounded in blue or something.
"They" (Doctors :rolleyes: ) said that I was never supposed to be able to walk or at least not without aid, and lookit me now! :D lol

But yeah sucks. Mine healed up ok, not like yours, sucks man. I was also born with a hole in my heart.

Drum Phil 09-17-2005 02:46 AM

Cheers for what you said guys. I may not be popular in here but that meant a lot to me. So thanks :)

*gives a big e-hug*

If i put my emotions into music right now i'll be a big dirty emo kid :lol:

rockindrummer, i know she's a skank, the main reason it all crushed me so badly was that i'd gotten her out of my life and moved on and found other people to care about. And then she comes back in the most painful way possible.

On the upside, the band i went to see played an awesome set. And the drummer used a mapex kit that looks like someones on here. Cant remember who but its that nice red colour. Mighta been half life. I never get tired of seeing him drum. Its all so precise and perfectly in time, yet he flails around and dances behind his kit.

Its a real shame it was their last ever tour :(

Jezen 09-17-2005 06:47 AM

Just did a very daft thing. Sanded my 13" shell down, then went outside to spray primer onto it. Sprayed a little on, and it came out clear. WTF?!!? Oh crap! I picked up the wrong spray!

So yeah. I accidentaly picked up the laquer instead of the primer. :p

Oh man went to a concert last night at a bar downtown....bouncers wouldn't let us in at first but after a talking to they obviously wanted the money and let us in saying they'd keep an eye on us so we wouldn't drink(which of cource they didn't)....Band name was The Unknown Soldiers who do The Doors covers. They were ****ing amazing, best concert i've been to for a long time..at the break we went out for a "smoke" and the cheff came and joined in...it was sweet. They have the best wings in town. Except i think i swalloed(sp) half a chicken bone and its either stuck in my throat or scrapped the hell out of it. They played everything except for touch me which was disapointing but whatever it was still awesome, but **** loud becuase it was a small bar and we were at the front.

Win A Rabbit 09-17-2005 03:02 PM

man, that party last night was f'ucking terrible. there was like 60 people that actually went, and everyone was just being a bunch of assholes to each other. the cops came like 20 times and searched me and my friend multiple (yes, multiple) times. luckily we pre-drank at my friend's house. i drank a bit too much, and by 11:00, i was starting to feel like s'hit. so we went to my friend's house, and i had a little nap on his couch while they made out for like 3 hours. then when she wanted to go home, she woke me up and i walked her home. needless to say, i'm not feeling so well this morning. :lol:

well now i'm going to go shower, and then hang out with my lady friends, since everyone else chose work over friends for the whole year.

Drum Phil 09-17-2005 03:03 PM

I do like that song sic

gastery6 09-17-2005 03:09 PM

Should have told the cops to **** off

Win A Rabbit 09-17-2005 03:13 PM

haha i did. on the third time, i was like "f'uck off, you've checked me twice now. you've gotta be f'ucking kidding me." then the cop tells the other cop that i've probably got something on me now, because i'm getting defensive...

the cops here are idiots. little do they know that the kids 10 feet behind me are selling large, large amounts of crack. but they search me 3 times.

styler 09-17-2005 03:41 PM

all cops are idiots..no offence to them cuz they do OCCASIONALLY get the people doing something wrong, but there all so biased, there cops..so there always right...

Double Bass Jim 09-17-2005 03:53 PM

It's hard to find a "good" cop, the ones that are out there get my respect though.
