  1. Do you really need to be a perfect drummer to score a gig? I.e., never missing a beat such as never being off by a smidgen in some areas.

  2. How much freedom do drummers have with their sound in the studio?

  3. How can you be exactly perfect on time all the time? That's one of my number one struggles is always landing perfectly on clicks 100% of the time.

  4. (Edit) Why do people like their snares to be cranked? I always thought it sounded bad because it all sounds like PVC pipe being smacked together. I've always left mine low, not too low to sound sloppy or fat, but not to high to get nasty overtones. Just an aggressive lower tuned snare on both heads. About the same tension except the top is just slightly higher than the bottom.

  5. (Also edited) Have you heard of Aesop Rock?

Zildjians just sound shitty to me. I'm glad he made the switch, Meinl is my favorite brand. Zildjians just don't have that natural tone and sound very "processed."
