Drums



I am really loving playing drums right now. It's the one rock instrument that I haven't gotten proficient at. I think I'm almost good enough to play in a band. I sat behind the kit with some friends on guitar and bass awhile ago, and I was hooked.

These Roland drums are really great. The mesh heads provide a really nice bounce for the sticks, and playing "real" drums for my recordings allows nuances that are hard to do with programmed drums. And I love the range of tones too.

Now I just have to work up my double bass speed to do death metal. I was jamming to some Deicide yesterday and I can almost keep up with the drummer. For about 8 seconds.
