My first post was meant to discuss my ideas and motivations for this blog, so it turned out to be a great fit for an About page!

This is my second post in the series of discussing state. It is now July 2015, and it’s been 4-5 months since I started drumming. I went to the rehearsal place today and recorded some videos, showcasing my current situation. Some is good, some is bad, and some is really crappy. But you know, I’m working on it. Let’s take a look at some regular goofing off, some blast beats, and some kick drum practice.

Getting better at double bass, or just the feet in general, is a difficult and frustrating process. With my hands I see progress, but with my feet it just feels hopeless sometimes. When I’m feeling extra low, I tend to watch these excellent videos.

Here’s a peek at some of the drummers that I find truly awesome and inspirational. Jamie Saint Merat (Ulcerate) Lee Stanton (Thy Art Is Murder) Giulio Galati (Ade) James Payne (Hour of Penance)

Getting Used to Injuries One of the most annoying things about being passionate about something new, something that’s fairly physical, is my tendency to get injured. Usually it’s nothing severe, but it can still stop me from doing the things I love from time to time. I’ve been an on-and-off runner for the past ten years or so, but due to various injuries it’s been mostly off. I strained the soles of my feet a couple of years ago, which led me to completely stop running for a long while.

It’s now July 2015, and this post is looking back a few month, back to March. This is going to be the first post in a series where I once in a while describe my current state. Have I progressed?
