Now that's the spirit. Laughter is very good medicine. A sense of humer when your feeling down. And I don't mean down under.

Knock on wood, yah say, now haven't we all been doing that for some time. Get it Wood Drums.

I personally would like to see some style in the arena. No cheap shots like Animal vs Buddy Rich (now that one was funny).

I will judge according to creativity, not as much of speed, but tempo, timing, beats and rudiments, rolls and mostly music to my ears.

Not someone who can drum 200 BPM's on the bass. (If iI wanted to here 200bpm's, I'd get my neighbor's kid with his bike and place a playing card on the front fork with a clothes line clip). Too much drama, I know, just having fun with you drummers.

Stick flipping to a minimum, and concentration on the cross hands.
Fancy drumming a plus. Hair pulling and hitting below the belt get plus points from me. Definitely no kicking in the groin area.

Just have some fun guys and lots of luck.
I'm having some fun already and the battle hasn't even begun.

Whats your opinion other drummers? Besides Skin & Der.

No probs Trom, you let me know when you're ready and we'll make it happen. The average cam-corder should be able to give you enough definition for others to judge us properly. I'm thinking criteria like. Compostion, Execution, best groove, Best fill, etc. We could leave the voting open for 2 months, then tally up the percentages to find the winner.

That is providing you can count of course.

I have all 18 toes and fingers, so counting shouldn't be a problem!
