Re: Best Hatchback Vehicle for Drums?

i drive a mini cooper and fit a 5 pc kit in there just fine without using the front passenger seat. it's even more fun to drive and is better on gas. Seriously? Do the rear seats fold down? They do, but i play a 20" kick drum so a 24 may not fit. My wife drives a Kia Soul and I agree, it's not...

Re: Bruner with Holdsworth (Dan Quayle Edition)

Actually it's about the style/philosophy of playing. It's a sum of the fill(s), the sound, the dynamics, the note placement... Some say it's fitting, some say it's not. It's not a "he made this fill, therefore he sucks" kind of thing, but discussing how he approached the song as a whole. ...
