So...my parents gave me a double bass pedal for Christmas.
Sweet.
However, I've made an interesting discovery...
PLAYING DOUBLE BASS IS FRICKIN' HARD!!!!!!
Seriously. A lot of drummers make it sound pretty simple. Even Lars Ulrich (one of the most overrated drummers on the planet) can do it. But I can't even keep a solid rhythm going.
Obvious conclusion: Those drummers I referred to have a lot of time to practice.
It's times like this that I really wish I was home for more than a couple months a year. Especially now that I have a band.
Incidentally...has anyone listened to the demo yet? Anyone?
Bueller?

Keep trying; we could write some heavy songs with that double bass!
I listened to a few, but I'm not one to judge. The style isn't really my cup of tea.
