  Answering Your Q's  Q:  Could you share some of the memorable experiences touring with bands? Well, I traveled around British Columbia and in Alberta as a member of various bands. We played bars, pubs, weddings, graduations, festivals and even won three battle of the bands competitions.  In order to make things last in a working band, you have to be able to get along with the same people on a daily basis. It is very important to get things out in the open, you know, communicating problems before they effect your performance. But even when things are rough, you know, when you are really sick or you have arguments in the band, when you start playing, those feelings tend to fade and the music takes you away.   You really have to be like a family.  I was younger then, and it was a great experience even though the accommodations were pretty rough and some of the places we played at were pretty dingy.  I would recommend to young musicians to see that ...

Drum Trash

  Drum Trash As a drummer, sustainable entrepreneur and instrument inventor, I am forever finding uses for items often thrown away.  Hardware and stands: Keep everything!
