Well, I could probably go on and on about myself and how I feel about drumming and how I try to make it fit the music we play, but I know there's probably lots of other cool stuff to be looking at right now, so I'll make it short. Drums play such an important roll in the whole feel and depth of music as well as in driving it along. Whether you know it or not, drums are all about dynamics. I really think a lot of drummers forget this and end up sounding the same in many different songs. This really takes away from the song's whole individual attitude. If you notice a lot of a band's song sounding similar, the problem may be in the drumming. That's why I always try to feel a new songs style and mood before adding drums, and try to create new inventive beats for each song as they come along. That's also why I am very interested in adding the sounds of the world's various percussion sounds to our music. It's truly amazing how much depth and individuality they can add to the song as a whole and how mant people overlook them in the world of Rock music. Well, I've already said too much. If you have anything to comment or add to what I've said, please feel free.

Bye.
