Blues drumming is normally based on triplets, like most jazz drumming. In that case, you would need to be a master at such rhythms and it's not easy to master them.

Regardless of how you feel about Russia politically, you can't deny musical talent coming from there.

It can help some people, but I don't need it. I can do it with or without it. Anyway, I do mostly dumbbells with some sets to be more challenging, but I don't need strong music to motivate me.

Blues drums is about the feel. It's not the kind of drumming, like say, from Neil Peart of Rush, for instance.

It would be cool to learn the banjo. I've always wanted to. Anyway, I grew up in a bluegrass area.

One problem with jazz drums is it can be elitist. I mean, I can understand resentment toward players and fans, even if some don't mean to be elitist.

Reggae can talk bad about racism directed toward one ethnic group, but the music has roots in movements with a strong bias against Caucasian people, so why can't we say all racism, in all forms, is bad?

Well, that can be debatable. For instance, soda is horrible for your teeth and bones.

I don't think so at all. It's just been overplayed. That's happened with tons of songs. Anyway, you gotta be in the mood for Stairway to Heaven.

His music seems more real than a lot of new stuff. Have you heard him? He was born near my mom's hometown in Tennessee.

I love soda and ice coffee too much. It eats up my money. However, as Red said on "Shawshank Redemption", we need a vice to remind us we're human.

I don't like the new Nashville sound, generally speaking. That would include a lot of artists. The reason behind my thoughts is the fact that the songs are lame (about beer, women, trucks, patriotism). They lack emotional depth. Note: not insulting anyone in the military or the USA, but you...

I like all kinds of music. I also not the type to diss certain genres like say "Soft rock is for softies" or something like that. :D

All I know is Bob Marley, generally speaking. Well, I haven't gotten into the Reggae genre beyond that.

When it comes to writing songs, it's really not that hard. You just gotta rhyme and you don't need AI.
