I'd rather deal with freezing, though.

Man, Wilma took A LOT of shingles off our roof.

man, today was great. didn't do any work at all in school, got to dissect a heart (which was awesome), got paid, got to bring home a whole bunch of food, and, yes, i met tom green. he came into the restaurant. such a cool guy. funny too, in his own little way.

Hey I was wondering, has anyone ever heard of electric drums giving people wrist problems? I could have sworn I've seen people say that on here before but I'm not sure. I've been playing electric sets alot more lately and I've been starting to have problems with my right wrist so I'm thinking that might be the cause. I know its not my grip because I have a great teacher and I've already checked my grip with him.

F[B]U[/B]CKING BAND KIDS!!! So, like two days ago I'm in the drum room and 2 of the kids are there with me. I get the metronome and start freestyling on the set, I through a backbeat and and 3 seconds of a jazz swing pattern before this gay trombonist goes "Whats that hand motion?" I tell him that everyones style is different and its easier for me instead of playing it only on top playing in one position. We then have a whole arguement and I agree to do it their way because my music teacher is a duece and thats how he wants me to do it. Then they start telling me things like "Okay play at 40" I play at 40 don't mess up, then the other drummer in the room starts playing a totally different time on a ride cymbal just doing buzz rolls, its a really slow tempo so I get thrown off time. The trombone player goes, your off time I go I know. Then when the drummer stopped playing I move from 60 to 80 and I was swinging there, then he goes okay now do something with your other hand, and my right hand starts swinging around, then he goes, "you see you can't do that while keeping your arm in one spot" but he said it like I'm supposed too. At fast speeds yeah I do it that way because its less motion and I have too, and he goes yeah but do that slow, then he goes at home I slouch when I play my trombone and I don't play like that in school. I tell him that drums are different because there isn't one textbook form, you take the basic form and make it fit you. He says theres one way. Discuss how much of a douce he is.

Well.. yes, and I believe Gore would've been better than all of them, but no, you don't have to win by votes in America, you just have to have friends in the business. Ooh, don't we love democracy?:rolleyes:

[QUOTE=Double Bass Jim]Yea well im still gonna get it :cool:[/QUOTE]

the one really weird thing was in "animate", they had the first half of the chours, then the verse, the the second half of the chorus, the the second verse, then it was the actual song.

and at the beginning, geddy sounds like hell. almost like he had trouble with the high notes.

Double Bass Jim 11-22-2005 11:35 PM

Wow thats odd.

I had my second maths paper this morning (calculator paper), and they put me through higher. Got Gurman this arvo too. I'm officially worried. :(

[QUOTE=Drummer54]I'm not trying to be a smart *** but somone I think said it was like his other one with minor changes

yeah, that was me.

it is pretty much the same thing. he added a maramba part during the electric(which was first then the accustic was all one big one because they play "mystic rhythems" prior to it which he does electric) and he switched up the thing with the horns, but the end was exactally the same, even the backround video.

so nothing major, but it was still sweet. the maramba thing he added is crazy.



and another thing i noticed was that his high toms were WAY too high pitched. it was weird to here "spirit of radio" with such an insainly high tom fill

Jezen 11-23-2005 11:03 AM

Dammit! I was going so well in the German high paper I had this afternoon, but I fell asleep after question 10! :angry:

Do you ever get the felling that noone else likes music as much as you. Arrrrg. In my band I'm the only one who wright's songs. And I'm the drummer!!! The others don't really seem like they wanna play originals. They just come with new suggestions for cover songs. Grrrrrrrrrrrr.

Oh man, I just completed MGS2: Substance after tracking down a copy for the XBOX, and I have to say... it sucks.

The first one was fantastic, sons of liberty is such a load of tripe.

In one of my German Exams at school, I thought it said 'Next to the Kitchen Utensils' instead of 'Next to the Cakes'.

I was quite embarrassed.

I just called my sister, she has all the drums in her car and is about 5-6 hours away. Boo yah.

Jezen 11-23-2005 05:12 PM

Ok, after the mishap with the German exams, I have an ordinary day. I had to go have a drum lesson today, because I had orchestra rehearsals last Sunday where I would usually study kit. Anyway, my teacher Roger Hempsall gave me a Buddy Rich DVD. :D

Oh and I just got this email:



Hey Jezen,

This is Ming-a-Ling from MX. It seems that your thread which you had posted all your progress on your Jezen snare hasn't been posted in for so long that it's no longer on the forum (either that or I just can't find it), and I just had some questions about the process. I'm wanting to get an old beat up kit to restore, but I've never done anything like that I'm curious as to the steps you took in building your snare, and what supplies you needed. If you could walk me though it I'd really appreciate it. Thanks man.
