Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Very good!! The kid has a great sense of rhythm and throws in some nice fills. His base drum work was a basic beat. I'd work with him to develop a baad right foot to strengthen the bottom end.
Oh yeah, everyone drops a stick occasionally. Even me.

I had one that bounced off the wall behind me one time, I caught it and kept playing. No camera, no witnesses, might as well never have happened.hobie16 wrote: Oh yeah, everyone drops a stick occasionally. Even me.
I used to have windows behind me, I counted 11 sticks in the blinds once. Helped when funds were short and I needed new ones :D:

I flipped one in the air during a gig. I lost it in the stage lights and got hit in the head. The crowd enjoyed that one.

So did Neal Smith (from Alice Cooper) recorded for all eternity on "Be My Lover" (specifically at 3:02 on the song off of "Killers")hobie16 wrote: Oh yeah, everyone drops a stick occasionally. Even me.
He explained in an interview that he had a habit of twirling the sticks, like on stage, even in the studio. The producer always yelled at him not to do it and one day, he dropped it. And near the end of the song you can hear this "tik, tik, tik.." of the drum stick falling into his kit..

Awesome video! How many 3-year-olds have that kind of focus. And he looked like he was having a great time. :D:
