Hey dude.

Welcome to Drumset Connect. How it be?

Sounds like a nice set-up and mix of cymbals.
What kind of music do you prefer to play?

I play Blues n Rock covers with The Juke Joint Jammers its.... easy a bunch of guys old pro's we get together at the gig and jam the set no rehearsals...just get in the groove and have a blast. I have done all sorts from Funk to A&R to C&W to roots fusion, jazz funk, African Tribal, Brit pop, Folk, Pop, Electro, New Wave and Punk Bands.....
Just quit my main band they were called GunnRunner uk...blues and rock John Mombassa and stuff like that and a few Classic rock thrown in...The .Guitarist started the "its my band" so i gave him the finger and quit after the vocalist also quit ...i dont deal with control freaks very well and he was a nut...Got a cool Reggie /soul thing project going down that's going to be Origional stuff with a few covers and a great vocal female and a few more serious auditions coming up in the pipe line..i bombed one last night... i got held up in traffic so i was stressed and late and then couldnt find the studio i went through 4 songs start to finish no stops... Green day ...American Idiot..Learn to fly Foo fighters ...Chelsea dagger the Fratilas and Sex on fire....kings of Leon i got the tabs off , the lyrics made some notes and was well prepped.... big problem was the vocal was too Low no power or projection and i was very loud like John Bonham and with four in ya face songs with just a little light and shade i just overpowered them...and i got the feeling they were a bit clicky so i was'nt waiting for the text or email with a well done! ........it was a releif not getting the gig because i would have got bored.......
