Thanks for the review, much better than any drum mag.

The flashy stuff, that is what the guitarists do, and if it were not for drummers they would not survive. Never seen anyone tap their foot or dance to a stringed instrument yet.

The better drummer is the one who keeps the beat. The better flashy drummers are the ones that keep the beat, and then put their stardust on top if it helps promote the song.

I think drum clinics should teach drummers something useful and not just be a show off platform leaving you walking away amazed at how that was executed.
Sure it's great to see the licks some of these drummers display at their clinics, but unless they are useful they are simply only of entertainment value unless they are explained in detail, and i doubt that.

I think you did learn something at that clinic.
