Being a heavy metal drummer must be the coolest thing to be in the entire universe! Awesome! Wonder how much energy it takes to play an entire setlist?

[@ekthorvd6739]

A lot, but pro drummers always try to have the most correct technique for not to get too exhausted, it's not the same playing with the whole arm and playing only with the wrist and fingers

[@iancamfield877]

@Paul Parker that's what I do. I learned one of my favorite songs in a day

[@elbeetlebeasto]

@Paul Parker Yep. That's the cool thing about drums, it's the one instrument you don't even have to own to get better at. I didn't have a set for about 8 years, and I got considerably better over that time just by air drumming. It helps particularly with coordination, trying to get one arm/foot to do one thing while the other arm/foot does another thing. Sounds weird to non-drummers but it's definitely real

[@scotty193]

I have commented previous on some of your great posts. Just let you know I happened let my 10 year old son see your U TUBE stuff he lost it. I have since bought him a DTX-900 Yamaha electric kit, don't have the ability to play acoustic set as close proximity with neighbours but thru amp and headphones he practise. When he gets good I will unplug him in the garden and fuck the neighbours hahaha thanks man your work is beyond reproach and you inspired another to take up music.

[@steveaustin1090]

Personal question Mr Delta Empire. Wearing a mask, black suit in front of bright lights will cause you to sweat profusely. That means your man panties also get wet. How do you keep your power tool in the center line? I play drums. When I sweat my balls go off the center line, start rubbing against my thigh and get the piss flowing. Makes it very challenging to play drums, without a mask.
