[QUOTE=Seafroggys]Its a weird habit of mine, but whenever I play on the bell, I always use the side of the stick, instead of the tip.[/QUOTE]
That's what I do too, It sounds fuller than with the tip of the stick.

Drummer54 put it just to the right of your hats beside your high tom and pretty much underneath the crash on your left side. There are many other places to put it but I like it there.

Aaron 10-13-2005 12:51 AM

^its more personal preference. im a wuhan/old K tone guy so it doesnt suit me..

Brokensticks 10-13-2005 12:52 AM

Wow, that is exactly where i have it under my left crash but a bit above my tom.

Brokensticks 10-13-2005 01:01 AM

The bell is meant to be played with the side of your stick. That is how my drum instructor taught me anyways. It gives a fuller sound and feels good to play. I like the feel or it anyways its something different.

Double Bass Jim 10-13-2005 01:09 AM

Depends, you get 2 different sounds with the tip and shoulder.

[QUOTE=Drummer54]Awesome thanks anyways man. Great to hear you like my choice in future cymbals. I like getting to know nice people on these forums where you from age?? And do you like the 10" AA splash??[/QUOTE]


im from a crapa[SIZE=2]s[/SIZE]s city called bakersfield in california. and no i dont liek the 10 inch AA splash but i do like the 6 and 8 inch ones. i love those ones. 10 inch is too big for a splash imo.

[QUOTE=sic]i've started to write my dreams down in a notebook, i wanna keep track of some of the weird ones. and since i start to forget small details as the day goes on, i keep it right by my bed and write it down usually once i wake up. should be quite interesting a few years down the road.

i forgot to bring my english binder home, i was going to type out another rant i did. my teacher's starting to get frustrated with me, telling me that i could easily be getting 10/10's, but i "add profanities" and she's trying to get me to stop by taking marks off.

edit - post 10101 !!! whoo hoo!!![/QUOTE]

I had a lucid dream last night and the night before. I was telling puppet master about it. The first one is too long to explain, and it was absolutely terrifying. Last night's one, I was being robbed by townies. They were stealing my kit in the middle of the night, and I caught them and tried to fight them. I managed to tackle one, and got on top of him and I kept punching him repeatedly in the face, except, he felt nothing. My attacks were harmless. I was vulnerable and could not stop them taking my drums away.

I guess you could say I am having lucid nightmares. I hope I don't have one tonight, as they are really really scary.

Double Bass Jim 10-13-2005 04:39 AM

I don't dream much to be honest, sounds pretty bad too BB ^ dang!

Drum Phil 10-13-2005 04:47 AM

Yeah i never seem to dream anymore. Except the other night when i had a dream about throwing a 300lb lead weight into someone i hates face :) That was satisfying to say the least

Double Bass Jim 10-13-2005 05:04 AM

Haha thats the kinda dream ya wake up and crack up at, good times. :cool:

Drum Phil 10-13-2005 05:05 AM

Hell yeah. I rarely dream but that kinda dream i can enjoy.

Balls ive got a funeral tomorrow :( Not lookin forward to it. And i think ive damaged the joint in my left index finger

[QUOTE=British Boy] I kept punching him repeatedly in the face, except, he felt nothing. My attacks were harmless.[/QUOTE]

I can kinda relate to that. I always have dreams where I'm jumping on a trampoline, but no matter how hard I try, I just can't bounce. I get really tired, really frustrated, but I just keep trying.
Kinda the same concept- last night I was playing basketball in my dream, but no matter how hard I tried I couldn't get the ball to the ring.

The only dreams you remember are the ones you awake during...

DruMMeR_BoY14 10-13-2005 07:08 AM

Ergh band practice has again been left up to me to organise, terrific. Its the night beforehand and now I find out our bassist hasn't one of our guitarists or signer about it, so guitarist is gonna have heaps of trouble making it and will probbaly have to hitch a ride with someone. plus we have a gig in 2 weeks so this practice is totally vital.

I hate this crap, when I joined up I had no intention of organising this ****. Owell, I pray to god that it all turns out ok, and if not I think I'll be pulling my hair out and having serious thoughts about quiting. Not the first time this has happened.

[QUOTE=poppinfresh]i think that if im goign to post the pic but i will need something in return. I demand to be modded before i post this.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Josiah]BC produces a fine product.[/QUOTE]

That it does. How'd your first practice with the church go? (I'm assuming you had it as you said you still have to bring your drums in.)

Brokensticks 10-13-2005 01:20 PM

Styler where in BC are you?? Poppin don't worry I think if he really wants to see the pic you will be modded :p. Are you bringing your drums in the from the church rehearsal???

[QUOTE=Josiah]Mornin.. i still gotta bring my drums in from last night.. booo[/QUOTE]

Ah, the day after. I usually do the same, you get home at 4:00 am and just don't feel like lugging your stuff back in.

Brokensticks 10-13-2005 01:36 PM

I sure as hell wouldn't want to. -Obscurity- you -- rep me awhile back that was mean :p

[QUOTE=Drummer54]I sure as hell wouldn't want to. -Obscurity- you -- rep me awhile back that was mean :p[/QUOTE]

What was it for?

Brokensticks 10-13-2005 01:40 PM

I don't even remember but I don't think it deserved - repping i was just giving my point of view and you had a different view but no worries man

-Obscurity- 10-13-2005 01:47 PM

[QUOTE=Drummer54]I don't even remember but I don't think it deserved - repping i was just giving my point of view and you had a different view but no worries man[/QUOTE]

It will say on your user CP exactly what post it was for.

Brokensticks 10-13-2005 01:48 PM

O ya, it was a comment you made about President Bush and I disagreed.
