Title: Help me with DrumSticks!
Post by: Partyboy on August 19, 2006, 05:27:13 PM
Hey i need a nice pair of Drumsitcks, for Marching Snare Drum.
If anyone knows of any nice pair, please tell me. I think Jeff Queen's sticks are good, but i dont really like him to much ( He thinks a good percussionist, is someone that can play fast). So please give me some links.

I use Ahead Easton sticks, they will last you forever and if you are just begining to do marching snare then you are most likely going to get quite a few rimshots so you will need something that is not going to break after a prolonged amount of playing. Here is a link for you (http://www.bigbangdist.com/ahead_st.htm), just scroll down to the bottom of the page and you will see their marching sticks. You can buy them at several retail stores but I get all my goodies from Midwest Percussion (http://www.midwestpercussion.com/sticks/easton.html) and Musicians Friend (http://www.musiciansfriend.com/perc?g=perc).

I dont see why people go to band practice for the school, I would rather just take art and sleep thru it and piss off the teacher.

If you want to see a real drummer, download the Neil Pert drum solo, he is in the band RUSH and he is the baddest drummer ever, and you can be next. :)

You are reffering to the play by Arther Miller, i'm reffering to a song by Rush entitled "The Spirt of Radio" in which Geddy Lee theatrically ends the song with the line "The Salesmen!".

Actually Laz If you do a little research you'll find that thats EXACTLY what the aincient cambodian warrior tribesman used to drum with during ceremonial festivities celebrating the loss of anal virginity in the young tribes men and their goat companions. See attached picture for a more in depth look at their culture

Hahahahahahaha .  Laz is just a noob.
