  1. WELCOME!

    1. Points - Ranks - Badges

      Hello there!

      We have some exciting new additions the the forums! We have added POINTS - RANKS - & BADGES. 

      You can get points by commenting, starting topics, reacting, etc.

      You will be upgraded in rank by how many points you have. 

      You can receive special badges by completing certain tasks in the forums. Example: you receive the "Snare Drum" badge after logging in 2 days in a row!

      I have listed the rundown of the points, badges, and ranks below!

      *NOTE*

      You will already have some points that have accumulated since you signed up, and your rank will already be updated accordingly, 

      The badges are NOT retroactive like the ranks, and will have to be earned from scratch!

    • I was thinking about Jimi Hendrix and how unorthodox his guitar playing was.  Not only did he play a right handed guitar upside down left handed but he pushed every boundary of rock and roll.  He often played under the influence of drugs and admitted it freely.  Many consider him the greatest rock guitarist ever. There was an equally adventurous music pioneer who performed three decades earlier.  Fueled by drugs and an incredible imagination not to mention impeccable technique was the saxophonist Charlie "Yardbird" Parker.  Bebop jazz stretched traditional jazz grooves to their limits with speeds of over 200 bpm and incredibly complex harmonies and rhythms and Charlie, or Bird as most called him, was the best ever. I'm wondering if there is a drummer who has come along and defined a generation of drumming in the last 100 years.  John Bonham comes to mind as does Max Roach and Art Blakey.  Neil Peart should be considered.  Any other suggestions?
    • I’m not overly confident on swing percentages. I’ve heard the term and have, I think, a working definition, but I’m not entirely certain how it is applied when playing. It seems that is something done by feel, but I don’t know. Any insight or input is greatly appreciated. Thanks to this school, I’ve gotten more into jazz and want to develop a greater sense of what to listen for in jazz drumming.
    • Preparation or lack thereof in the church is a struggle of mine. Sometimes I feel that the church is not putting in the work to operate with excellence! I have been put in that position many times!! Called at the last minute !
    • I like to hear everyone’s thoughts on being payed versus serving!  Particularly with the worship team! I’ve served for many years; sometimes the only drummer doing every service; conference: special guest services etc. Do you agree or disagree with paying your team? Why or why not?
