			<link>http://billyward.yuku.com/topic/3997/t/Not-My-Ship-But-Maybe-A-Tugboat.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ I had an amazing gig yesterday with a big-name entertainer (on an impressive line-up) in a major venue.
<br>
<br>
Wrote about it here: <a target="_blank" href="http://drumwild.blogspot.com/2009/11/gig-with-fred-willard.html">http://drumwild.blogspot....g-with-fred-willard.html</a>
<br>
<br>
Maybe my ship hasn&#39;t come in yet, but this is what I call a &quot;tugboat.&quot; Who knows where it could go.

			<link>http://billyward.yuku.com/topic/3993/t/music-addiction.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Do you cats think it&#39;s possible to become psychology addicted to certain tunes, and if so, do you consider it something to watch out for, or something
benign?
<br>
<br>
I began to realize today that when I&#39;m not listening to Steely Dan, I fantasize about listening to Steely Dan, and it gave me a bit of a pause. Sometimes I
engineer situations specifically as opportunities to rock the Dan.

			<description><![CDATA[ I really love this guy, so underrated, yet his songs do well when covered by others.
<br>
<br>
One of my favorites, and if I had to define the term &quot;rocking&quot; this would be a great example.
<br>
<br>
The drummer is DW player Michael Urbano, almost could pass for Josh Freese!

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Turn your sound on for this. This is really cool. Read this first, then watch.
<br>
<br>
This is almost unbelievable. See how all of the balls wind up in catcher cones.
<br>
<br>
This incredible machine was built as a collaborative effort between the Robert M. Trammell Music Conservatory and the Sharon Wick School of Engineering at the
University of Iowa. Amazingly, 97% of the machines components came... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ So, I&#39;m playing a pit gig tonight; it&#39;s my first rehearsal.  I get there, set up... and realize I have no beater for my kick pedal.
<br>
<br>
Crap.
<br>
<br>
But, what I do have is my Zildjian drum tool... I extended the large hex wrench, fitted it into the beater shaft holder, and tightened the screw... no one ever
knew the difference!
<br>
<br>
I took great pains to not let anyone know I had forgotten that piece.  Maybe after the run ends I&#39;ll tell them.
<br>
<br>
Just wanted to... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Hey Y&#39;all!
<br>
<br>
I saw Slogg and his lovely wife at Woodstick yesterday.
<br>
<br>
He was walking (with a cane) and looking good!
<br>
<br>
We talked about....what else?  DRUMS!  Heh heh.
<br>
<br>
I hugged him way too long and too many times.......
<br>
<br>
I won a prize at Woodstick, but seeing Sloggy was the best prize of  all.
<br>
<br>
Damn it was good to see him. ]]></description>

			<link>http://billyward.yuku.com/topic/3978/t/looking-for-more-info-on-playing-cymbals.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ <br>
<br>
I was looking for something that focuses on playing cymbals, and am having difficulty finding what I was looking for.
<br>
<br>
Not so much on stick tips (nylon or wood) but more on ride patterns that would compliment say a simple 2-4 rock beat...either on hi hat or ride or crash
etc....
<br>
<br>
What about when playing say a ballad, or blues etc....
<br>
<br>
I don&#39;t find much that illustrates the cymbals, maybe I am just missing it?
<br>
<br>
Thanks for the help.<a... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Went to see the film this evening. If you are a musician or fan of Live music....go see this film!!!  Doesn&#39;t matter if you were a fan of his music or not.
It&#39;s all live footage from the Tour rehearsals. Great to see how a big production like that was put together.
<br>
<br>
Cracking band, Jonathan Moffett (Drums) and Bashiri Johnson (Percussion). MJ&#39;s performance of &quot;I just can&#39;t stop loving you...&quot; was worth the
admission price on it&#39;s own.
<br>
<br>
Cheers... ]]></description>
