So, I’ve just recently started drumming for a band, The Goodness. You wouldn’t have heard of them, unless you were one of the 200 people at the one show they’ve ever played, sometime last year. Anyways, their old drummer has a life, and can’t commit to the band any more, which is where I come in. I’ve only played with them three times, twice with just the guitarist, but it’s a pretty good time. However, they play Ska/Rock, which is a fair bit faster than what I tend to practice, so I’m still working on getting into, and staying in the groove. I also got a new pair of sticks with a textured grip to keep the sticks from slipping so much, but as a result of tonight’s jam I now have a pair of magnificent blisters.
Also, my Protest The Hero vinyl came in the mail today. It was done up in cardboard and duct tape, with the address sharpied on. Hardcore. The box got a bit dented on one side during shipping, but the record is fine. Now to wait to have the house to myself, so I can blast it on the surround in the living room.
Haha, for some reason, you saying “hardcore” totally just made me laugh. You’re so cute.
