We’re back from our week break and we bring you a show on frame drum technique and Michael Jackson drummer, Jonathan Moffett is the drummer of the week. In the news is Brady Drums, RIP Jake Hanna,
Hola! Yeah, I know it has been a while but now I’m back!
To make up for slacking I’m doing a trio of videos to make up for lost time. The three videos come from a new series of instructional videos I discovered on Netflix. A Los Angeles based company called IMV has flooded Netflix with its line of “Behind the Player” (BTP) DVDs. They have videos for guitarists, bassists, and drummers and they feature mostly artists of the rock/metal/alt variety. They also donate a portion of their earnings to a charity called Little Kids Rock. I suspect it’s all a part of an evil plot concocted to boost membership in the KISS Army, but that’s just my theory.
Today, Dave demonstrates hand drum technique that can be applied to virtually any hand drum you come across, and Carter brings us news of Ringo Starr’s new honor, Zildjian’s 2010 scholarship contest, and the 2010 Modern Drummer Festival lineup. Plus, Zak Starkey is the drummer of the week! Show Notes
Part II of our look at all the crazy gear coming out at this year’s Winter NAMM in Los Angeles (Anaheim!!). Travis Barker is the drummer of the week, we talk about Tommy Igoe’s new DVD, and no one laughs at Carter’s jokes. Show Notes
