In anyones opinion, would a snare a brushes be a good addition to a jamming ring with bongos, guitars, violin and a mandolin?

@Sandyhendry: Absolutely Yes

hahaha, not trying to hate or anything. you are a great drummer. great chops man. im jealous... but @ 1:50 u let ur technique loose and start slicin super hard with ur right hand... just made me laugh thats all. also... i've been watchin a few of your vids. u use a 13" yamaha snare with that yellow hip kit? im interested in the depth and type of wood. maple?

[uwepetersen]

@hintermister Hey man thanks for your comment. The snare I use with the HipGig is a Yamaha Stage custom 5"x13" the wood is Mahagoni mixed with maple I guess???

i noticed your vater noise guard... are they good?? im planning to buy one... theres no reviews or anything here in youtube about vater noise guard so i cant decide if ill buy or not...

[uwepetersen]

The Vater Noise Guards are very good, they feel good on toms and cymbals. I highly recommend the VATER NOISE GUARDS.

@FeeLtheHertZ idk man.. you might not care for my opinion, but i always play brushes trad grip. its way more comfortable and makes a nicer and more consistant swish for me. im trying to play better traditional with sticks, but so far brushes is easier to do

i see that u have this hq sound off thing. is it really works good? could put some short review on utube?

[tankbrute6]

stirrin the witches breww with those brushesss heh heh hehh

[FeeLtheHertZ]

What grip do yo uprefer? matched or traditional? I personally am against traditional because I find it inefficient overall, but maybe it's because I'm not that comfortable w/ it yet, and it inherently makes you drop your shoulder, like it seems like you do in this video.

Thoughts?

Just discovered your vids tonight, hats off to you bro, what an excellent player with some serious dedication to his craft. Thanks for the inspiration. Will have to subscribe and see if i can't pick up a few tips here and there....shouldn't be hard from someone as well rounded and skilled as yourself.
