I’ve met Shane once in a small town pub in Ireland, just chilling out and the conversation I’ve had with him, dang, it will be something to remember for the rest of my life.

It turned out really well because my band mate and I produced all songs in a fairly short amount of time and thus the style of each song went well with all the others. It was more indie, too. The next album was released via a well known label and they kept pestering us with changes they wanted us to do. It felt too mainstream for me to be happy with the result.
Recording my third music album in Berlin and it turned out to be the best of all records I have done so far in my life.
I always feel the need to puke when reading that utter cunts name. It is beyond my imagination how fucking daft a single person can be.
Never deal with people who are religious or ‘spiritual’. They are all delusional and batshit insane. Turn around, walk away, never look back.
Ich habe im Steam Sale zugeschlagen: Star Trek: Resurgence und Shooty shooty robot invasion. Letzteres ist ein herrlich absurder und handgezeichneter Indie-FPS-Shooter und ich habe lange nicht mehr so gelacht. Es ist herrlich absurd und mit knapp über 7 € kann man da auch nicht viel falsch machen.
I know, but at least a Muppet from Sesame Street.
The Count. Ah, ah, ah, ah!
100 % salmon. Unfortunately one of my neighbours painted their entire house like that and it pisses me off every day walking my dog.
Most of my students are kids / teenagers and especially group classes can be somewhat annoying every now and then. But at the same time it’s very rewarding. Sure, sometimes I’m a bit underwhelmed by their taste in music, but hey, I’ve been a dumbass kid as well back in the day. I love the lessons when I’m not taking any requests, just giving a big lecture about different music genres and then getting into the drumming zone. I teach one advanced class every 2nd week (beginners class is every week) and I love seeing my students light up when it comes to proper challenging stuff. One is a fun nu metal fan who once asked me if I knew how to play “Word up”. You mean the Korn version or the actual original? Lol, his mind was blown away after hearing the original for the first time, and that was the original song plus me on the drums playing along to it. :D I might’ve had shitty parents, but oh dear, both of them had good taste in music and thus I know boatloads of cool stuff all the way down from the mid 50s up until the early 90s.
May I introduce you to Drumeo? :D Rock on! I know some of the people from the channel on a personal level and some of the “listen to the first time” teachers actually taught me the ropes when I started out playing (I used to be coder / keyboarder before getting into playing drums).
Lol, I had to look it up online. There’s some very nice Breakcore elements in that music. To quote a friend of mine (who is crazy enough to actually play that sort of stuff live on an oldschool kit every now and then): “Sure, I can play Breakcore live - for about 20 minutes and then I’ve got to stop because otherwise it would give me a major league heart attack!” :D
Imagine this being bored to your tits:

Imagine being even more bored by pop music… ;-)
It’s just always the same. Doesn’t matter if it’s Taylor or any other pop musician ever since the early 90s.
Damn, now I feel old - and I’m only 38. ^^
I just have fun on the drums playing and teaching when it comes up to speed and different tempos. I love playing challenging stuff - for example Sam & Dave. I do love playing kicks that are not going well initially with crashes. It’s just me, being jaded.
But apparently all my students dig my classes, so I can’t really complain.
Oh, no worries. I teach them 50/50 what they want to learn and the other half is what I think it’s good for them to learn. That includes Blues, Jazz, Grunge, Funk, Soul, and so, so many more genres. I just hate dull pop music with a passion. :D
(plays punk music angrily in a corner…)
I’m a drums teacher and I’m this close to breaking my sticks with my bare teeth if any of my students request learning another shitty Swift song ever again. Or maybe I’ll smash the window in by throwing my kit at it. Or myself. Or my students…
Wasn’t it taking place in New Mexico, according to some ancient interviews and the writers bible for those bits? Please correct me, if I’m wrong here.
I can bend the top part of my thumbs 90 degrees backwards. It freaks people out when I do it. It doesn’t feel odd or anything.
