I'm currently awaiting a re-worked used Stick to be completed by Mr. Chapman; it should be done within a couple of days now. I'm incredibly excited to begin the next phase of my music life. (I've been a drummer for 32 years, and most of those years were spent as a professional, but I've been dreamin...

Whatever you do, do SOMETHING to protect your ears. When I was in my late teens/early twenties, this sort of thing really wasn't on anyone's radar (except maybe for Pete Townshend's), and I was playing drums in a rock band while working in construction and metal fabrication jobs, so my ears got beat...

It arrived today. And it just might be the prettiest thing I've ever seen (aside from my wife, of course). Oh my goodness, I am in for a ride...

Ok, so I got my Stick this past Friday, and I'm little by little (with what miniscule free time I have) making my acquaintance with it, and i"m having fun. There are two things which are starting to disturb me, though. The first might be something that I have to get used to and suck up: when I ...

Previously, sighting down the neck showed me that it looks about as straight as an arrow, but I'll take another look. Certainly it's possible th...
