Message: [QUOTE="89vett, post: 176677, member: 19424"] I started playing when I was 5 and I am 32 now.I play all the time. My uncle is a professional drummer\master teacher who has played and recorded with Woody Herman,Peggy Lee,Mike Nesmith,Red Garland, Richard Groove Holmes,etc.He was in the August 2000 issue of Modern Drummer magazine page 142.He currently has his own big band and plays with most of the Jazz trios in Los Angeles.As for me I have several set's- new Ludwig classic maple set,yamaha DTXpress kit for quiet practicing,70's gretsch set,1964 Ludwig set,1 70's ludwig set,1 new premier genista set. I recorded a album not too long ago and I am waiting to get the CD back. The best drummer of all time was Buddy Rich and I had the pleasure of seeing him twice before he died.I also love John Bonham,Charile Adams,Neil Peart,Rod Morgenstein,Billy Cobham,Stewart Copeland.I don't really like the way most of the new drummers play-way too hard and no touch. 89vett [/QUOTE]
