The Drum Panel: Click Tracks, Minimal Setups, and the Truth About Bass Drums
Description
Episode 2 of The Drum Panel
Welcome to The Drum Panel—a show where a rotating group of professional drummers engages in roundtable discussions on polarizing and controversial drum topics submitted by our listeners.
For today's panel, we have my co-host Eric Urrea and special guest, Kris Mazzarisi (owner/founder of Big Fat Snare Drum & drummer for Winnetka Bowling League).
Today we discuss:
- does practicing to a click make your playing sterile?
- those who can't, teach. True or False?
- does using less drums/cymbals make you more creative?
- you should never put anything in your bass drum! True or False?
- do drum shells tune themselves?
- do you need to put a button at the end of every live song?
- are the most musical drummers...non-drummers?
