This whole incident is so sad. Unfortunately, anti islamic feeling has been rising since the incident which is exactly what these terrorists are trying to foster - hate. I hope as a country we don't fall into the trap they lay out in front of us.

Just replaced the G2 on my snare for the ambassador x. Sounds twice as resonant, but just as fat. It's a good balance. There's a video of me playing it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35Gl3Lx2rss

I personally think the answer is balance. I personally used to play a lot of N64 and PS2 in my youth, all the while listening to music.

Getting those singles between the hands and feet not to flam with the 8th note hi hat is still such a struggle for me. Hass eats it all for breakfast...

Two guys who should get way more attention!

Never liked JS. She seems to be trying too hard, and comes off as a bit wedding singer-y. Good to see the big boys laying it down behind her though. Vinnie must be like here we go again... (on the inside of course!)

Simon is a perfect example of how jazz drummers who later fused rock and jazz(Billy Cobham, Tony Williams), had such a huge effect on rock drummers. Influenced by two pioneering jazz drummers, Simon doesn't play a note of jazz. He's a rock drummer, and yet because of his influences he has a jazz ph...
