I suggest perfecting more Breaking Benjamin songs and covering them :3 I can almost play every song from Saturate! :D

thank you for your support! :)

thanks for the suggestion man, i might possibly do that. we dont have much time to get together for practice and stuff, so ill possibly have to do it before a show or something. the drummer uses a smaller set live now. and his big set he just leaves set up in the jam room. so i might have to have him walk though both of his sets.

thought about doing that at one time, didnt know if anyone would be interested in it, lol... but maybe we will have to.

hey man i noticed ur comment on baggsivs videos and guess what i figured it out its not a friend its his wife! seriously i saw the myspaces of his and his wives and that sums up the data, who else could get that close to him in concerts and film him in a some home environment, also another thing listen to some of the talking in the video it is her voice her name is heather smith chads wife, i really dont care if you think thsi is false but its make so much sense plus her daughter in that drumming video of her, u can hear a female voice

i mentioned you haha

great vids

Hey man, I'll have a vid up soon to show you how I did the tuning and dampening, specifically.

In a short explanation: I use Aquarian Super Kick II Head for the beater side and I tune that quite low. Those heads seem to give off quite a clicky sound when tuned lower and their super dead (don't give off a lot of bwowowwow sound after being hit) I then took a small bathroom towel and folded it into a 12ft square and duck-taped it to the back of the resonant side of the bass drum(Remo Ebony black bass skin.) I tuned the front pretty tight and the kick drum doesn't have too much sustain. This works great for getting a quick attack with that "click" sound with it.

What it takes away is more of a woofy sound which sounds nice for more jazzy stuff and that slow rock sound.

Hope that helps a little!
