Long drum solos aren't for everyone - I get it. Just do what many at Grateful Dead concerts did and look at it as an opportunity to go get another beer. On the other hand, if you are the sort of person who cheers at the fireworks show, I hope…
Improvisation on congas and very fragile, clay Moroccan bongos (which my brother found for me from an African display at some zoo!). These bongos are basically clay pots with permanent, very thin goat skins stretched over the top - they can not…
I asked CaptGene for something funky, trusting that a fishing guide from Babsom Park would know exactly what I was talking about. He did. The Captain knows funk.
I used to have a link to his original version here, but that is no longer available…
Out on the lawn there arose such a clatter!
Sometimes, as they say, Christmas do come early. I found Johnny Stone's "Christmas Rock In Oz" under the tree and couldn't wait until Yuletide to unwrap it. What a rockin' gift! I know a bit about…

Thanks man, I am learning from the best ;) when I was playing around with the percussion samples last night I kept thinking it needed something, and I listened to your drums a few times and went......COWBELL!!!!
As I had nothing better to do last night, I had this great idea that I would construct a rhythm for the 24 hour challenge. This would be different: a 24 minute drum solo (I mean, who wouldn't love that?). I even had a perfect bass riff: the "Mother…

Such good fun I do it all the time.
Single Gon Bops conga track miced for heavy bass. And 2 tracks of cow bell, of course.

Something the Gritter wrote about the Beatle cover i did rang a bell that turned into an alarm and now it's a song Thanks Sandy The best Cowboys do have Chinese eyes that ain"t no lie.....oh and thank you Pete too.......for actually coming up with it
Clint Eastwood has Chinese eyes. I think you are absolutely correct.

This song is about all the Austin bands that tried to make a living with their original music in the Austin, TX area in 1991. Lots of Austin bands got their start playing at the Black Cat Club on 6th street in Austin playing for the door. This…

Lyrics:
There’s a pound or two of flesh in my chest yet.
It sits next to the bag that brings me my breath, yes.
A knot of muscle that flex and flex and flexes,
It’s okay—no rest (unless time requests it).
In the bowl above my eyes a gelatinous…

I purchased a Simmons drum pad today - I'm not a real drummer - please be kind. It was on sale at Guitar Center $180 + extended warranty + sticks http://www.simmonsdrums.net/sdmp1/
The synth is my Fender Mustang + GR-20
I do have video of Jacob playing the udderbot with the band - but right now I'm still putting together my gear from storage and this was the best I could do with Windows Live movie maker on my laptop.
So for now - enjoy the sound of Jacob jamming…
Great bluegrass. Great video (you seem to be getting passed more than passing...), and, of course, I had to look up "udderbot". What a cool instrument! Make your own! I am!

"Winston's Black Dog"
I could have made a great Prime Minister
Just need a good reason to be sinister
Give me an army, an enemy,
a great war --
and I'll deliver
Put me in the middle of nowhere
In the wilderness I'll survive
But in an air-conditioned…
Comments on Norm's stuff
I almost missed this one ! cool perc track from start to finish
Totally hot and inspirational! Fabulous beats bringing a sweet melody of their own.
Bethan thinks you should lay down some percussion to add to my Christmas Jam...I don't disagree!
Excellent Norm top rhythm brilliant.
Killer, very nice!

Oh great stuff Norm. What a lovely rhythm. Most enjoyable track.
I agree with Dave very infectious, i've caught it ........oooooooh Yeh........
Your sense of timing is unbelievable man. This is very infectious and cool grooving song. Drums as melodic structure, its very inspired.
Most excellent!

Wow!
Cool title and the percussion is spot on as hell...lots of talent Norm.
Great collab very cool dudes.
This one got the head nodding and the foot a tapping.
Yeeahhh!!!!
Thanks man, I am learning from the best ;) when I was playing around with the percussion samples last night I kept thinking it needed something, and I listened to your drums a few times and went......COWBELL!!!!
Even with your troubles I still dig this one man.

That's it. I quit.
Sounds like great fun! Nice hats.
Too much fun!
The closing round was delightful as was the udderbot in the final song. I should probably make an udderbot...
Awesome, Reg! Great collaboration betwixt a couple of AT giants!
Ah yes. 2 drummers at times! Wonderful stuff.
Superb drum work!
Excellent drummer! Totally pro.
Beautiful.
Totally pro!
This one soars.
It was only a matter of time... it pleases me that you are releasing your inner percussionist.
Love the street drumming busker!
Go Dave Go! Nice work.
Good for you! Be careful with such an addicting piece of gear!
Do it some more!
