Drummers are better athletes ...

I have been saying this all along since the 70's ... drummers are better athletes. Move over football and baseball. Move over to a rehearsal during the summer at a high school or college and watch why drummers are better athletes.

Or ...

Here's a video you can see to understand why I make this claim.

High Tech Drum Lesson Studio coming to Frederick, MD

Need to practice a tympani part for your school program? Got it covered here. Plus, with the Aux. Input for mp3's and other tunes… Continue
