...starts beating like a big bass drum...*

So I recently dug out my drum set after a decade in the shed... frankly I don't know why I let them sit for so long I guess I had shit to do and really have no place for them...I still don't! But I pushed out the Rivi from the garage and set 'em up. And to my great delight....no damage! ( I was sure water had found them!) Even the heads are good, should be replaced and I will when I get some positive cash flow....And so I wiped off the dust, mouse piss and bug juice, I sat on the thrown I've had since like 9th grade found some sticks, literally found a practice pad and two 2B from my teen years! I laid down some decent beats, not great, but if felt awesome a spark of a flame that once burned like a freaking super nova has started to reappear inside me again, it fells good like seeing a friend or hot chick...the rust is slowly fading ,it's like riding a bike!

Mad-Tank seems to have taken a slight interest.... probably curious more than anything but she can put together a proper 4/4 and has a lot of natural rhythm...but she said girls don't play drums! I said the hell they don't...you mean you never heard of Sheila E.? What are you 6? Anyway so on to youtube we ran and I've found some great drummers! Boy/Girl it doesn't matter if you can play you can play! I'm going to guide her and Mia-Tank into music and if they find the love for playing or not I feel it is every parents duty to at least give their child the chance to try an instrument they may love it they may walk away for decades at a time but at least they can say "I can play_______....".

Drums are complex beasts they are humbling and fun they are the Golf of instruments it looks easy but once you are really trying to do well they kick you in the nutz and all drummers regardless if they admit it are insecure by nature. You never hear a drummer say how kick ass they are, that is because there is always someone better, guitar players brag about how awesome they are, drummers pine and worry and never think they are that great, even the greats!


I think it's the fringe pants that make her Kick Ass! Cindy is a freaking genius, now she is married to Carlos Santana, I bet that house is loud!





The incomparable Sheila E. "Glamorous Life"...reprise.




Karen Carpenter, straight rips....if'n ya don't beleive me here is a taste....skip to 1:38 to get to the drumming!




This chick is all over youtube...she plays along with some great drummers and seems to know here away around the kit and the production is first class and she is heavily sponsered... is she a teacher? soft core for dudes with drummer fetishes ( that gives new meaning to "pounding the skins"!)? I found some stuff with her playing with three other hot chicks... get this, playing, chelos and violins.....some sort of band teacher fetish there for sure!

" I no-know"....jury is out 'till I find some original jams! But her she is taking on Danny Carey and Tool, no mean feat!




Israeli chicks are hot....Natalie Portman, ummm Leo DiCaprio's girl...probably some others....here is her site, I'd start in the Gallery and work my way back...oh crap I have a hot-chick-drummer fetish!
