One kit I played had the snare batter head choked and the reso head had a medium-high tuning. The toms and bass drum were quite loose and hardly had any rebound. The other kit had the had the snare batter head even more choked and with an e-ring. The toms were a tad bit higher but the bass drum had absolutely zero rebound with foam inside. It also had Emad heads. The cymbal was almost on the floor and the hi-hat was eye level. They’ve been doing this for months. Is this a local issue or do you guys experience this as well?

I feel as though my right hand is quite stiff and my fills are stiff and boring.

Here's the audio:

[That's All Right - Arthur Crudup drum cover by me.wav](https://drive.google.com/open?id=1BEozpt6Uktslf4OIPt85VaZjlR9mP\_ox&usp=drive\_copy)

I tried to sync the audio the best I could. I'm working on a proper visual setup. Arthur on the left. I'm on the right.

Songs like Six Appeal

Since learning about Michael’s influences and how he listened to music across many different genres, I’ve begun to do the same. I’ve come to appreciate many different sounds and have incorporated them into my playing. How have you responded to learning about his influences?

Critique my drumming. I already know my right foot needs a lot of work

Most people play the melody with singles, but it’s actually a bit more complicated. The pattern is: RLRLRRLLRLRRLRLL. The rest of the song is mainly rudiments and this pattern: RLLRRRLR or RLRLRLLR. I’m just making this post to help people.

I’ve got a brass crash cymbal that I don’t use. It’s incredibly thin, splashy and trashy. Should I use it as a splash or just buy a normal splash?
