Really cool live footage and commentary/advice from a bunch of fab surf drummers. Plus, mine came with a signed photo from the man Dusty himself. How cool is that?

Ah well, best of luck in your quest. I would say the standard location targeted “musicians wanted” type websites may be a good bet. — Skins for The Delstroyers Top
Surfing_Sam_61 Joined: Jan 15, 2019 Posts: 1515	Posted on Jan 26 2020 11:03 AM I'll geek out on drumology Did you know all 41 drum rudiments were originally military signals for commands by snare drummers in Army's etc. It was later adapted tonality wise for fills etc when the first drum kits emerged in about 1910 for Dixieland music. Basically many orchestral type percussionists were replaced by just one drummer with a drum kit. That's why drumming is so hard, you are doing the work of six musicians. It was a hazardous job back in in the Civil War, you were the first target If you were a sanre drummer. Top

I played in marching band in high school and college - fun stuff except when 40 degrees and raining here in the PNW. The level that the great drum lines of today have taken things is pretty insane. — Skins for The Delstroyers Top
WaveOhhh Joined: Apr 24, 2006 Posts: 236 Plantation, FL	Posted on Jan 26 2020 11:37 AM Thanks CreepBeat. Hmmm, “Musicians Wanted” websites. Since I started playing Surf/Instro in 2004, I could write a book on all the wierdos that came from that “Musicians wanted” website “InstroSurfRockYouMeanLikeTheBeachboysList.” — What day is Surf Rock's birthday?

WaveOhhh Joined: Apr 24, 2006 Posts: 236 Plantation, FL	Posted on Jan 26 2020 11:43 AM Still would like to find a drummer in the Central Jersey area who is familiar with surf rock. Know anyone? Drumstick did a fill-in one time for our band at a surfing contest at Manasquan beach. All the way from Connecticut to NJ! — What day is Surf Rock's birthday?

Although a bass player, I have actually studied the Ted Reed “Syncopation” book. Starting on drum pad, I later played most of the book on slap and pizz upright bass. Yes, it didn’t sound like surf rock but overall I became a better bass player by familiarizing myself with feel of syncopation. To my detriment, after all that training I now hear a lot of sloppy drumming and here I am looking for a warm body to sit on the drum throne in my basement. — What day is Surf Rock's birthday?
