  -- Quote of the Day -- "…I was able to apply my back ground in music as a therapy …to help people where they are shut down to find out how they want to open up and connect with the community. …There are so many benefits that music adds to our entire being. …We are educated through logic and reason – the left brain is dominant and we marginalize the importance of the right side of the brain, which is the side of the brain that recognizes patterns, metaphors, connections between things. …When we hear (or play) music our brain is responding with both sides of the brain. …It makes their memories sharper, math scores go up… music helps us deal with change, helps us learn faster… respond quickly with an agile mind that can grasp many things on multiple levels.  …All the arts are beneficial in this way, but music has this unique feature …of lighting up the brain in many, many ways. ” ~ Judy Treder-Wolff ~~ http://BrummetMedia.ca ~~

  -- Quote of the Day -- “...I was a professional musician for most of my life  and so for me when I sit down to write, it is like playing music – I hear the rhythm and the sounds of the words…  for me it is about the whole visceral impact of the words…  how they sound; how they move.  …so when I sit down to type it is like playing piano  or playing keyboard.  Writing feels like singing, it is like music coming out.” ~ Lynn Serafinn ~~  www.BrummetMedia.ca ~~

Drum Handling Equipment and Storage  *Written by Don Goodwin  The basic categories for drum handling equipment are dollies, cradles, lifters, carriers, and dumpers. For drum storage there are racks, cradle systems, and drum pallets. Drum dollies can be in a style very much like standard dollies, but designed to hold the round shape of drums. Although there are some variations of these dollies most function in a similar manor. Other styles of dollies can be round or oval carts that are pulled by a handle. The drum sits in the drum dolly in an upright position, and come in single and two drum models. Similar to this style of dolly is a drum cradle.  The drum cradle looks somewhat like a wheel barrow without the bucket. The drum sits horizontal on the cradle then it is lifted and pushed by the handles. The drum cradles are a great option if you want to be able to pour from the drum as well as move it with one piece of equipment. Drum dollies can range in price from $50 - $60...
