		So, hello!
 My passion is music. Especially all things drums and drumming.
 
 I live in the East Coast. Semi retired with 3 kids and 2 grandkids.
 
 A lot of stuff to look at in this board, so I'll get right to it.
 
 Cheers!

		Percussion is good. I used to have a hard time separating on my hands the different beats. It's not easy and almost like playing a Piano.

I'm not much of a snowflake. Although around certain girls I've been known to turn into a puddle

I've played drums since I was little. When I'm not playing I'm driving everyone crazy tapping on everything.

		Paradiddles have always been hard but once you get it they get fun.

		I learned rudiments when I was in grade school. Did a little band and some military stuff. Paradiddles, double and triple paradiddidles. flam-taps, single and 2 stroke rolls.
 Lots of fun. Then got influenced by the Beatles so Ringo is probably where it all started for me.

My children are all grown and gone. 2 grown women, 1 grown man. 2 grandkids, 13 and 7. I dont get to see them much. They live in South Carolina, and while they're always bugging me to come down and visit traveling is expensive.

Crosby and Bowie,    which is exactly what Drummer boys avatar would look like,  if they had a child together.

		Thought of you, Drummerboy . . . 
 Listening to Hypnotized by Fleetwood Mac.
 
 Mick's steady, understated cadence is both haunting and perfection.
