Queen - Don't Stop Me Now
(only one for now, more to be added soon)
F.A.Q
1 - Do you have tabs for this (whatever) song?
No I don't. I don't use tabs whatsoever, all I play is played by ear. Sorry.
2- Do you have lessons? Do you get grades?
I don't have lessons. but i did when i first started. and no i dont get grades.
3- how old are you? how long have u been playing? Did u ever had drum lessons?
I'm 18 (as of 22/Jan/2008) and i've been playing since i was 13, so 5 years, and yea, i had couple of months of drum lessons right when i first started, after that, never again.
4 - What kind of drums is that? What brand is it? How Much was it?
It's a Roland TD6-KV Electric kit, it costed me 1200 USD 2 years ago.
5 - Would you recommend it?
No, it's a piece a crap. Go for acoustic if you can.
6 - Why do you have it then?
Cuz I currently live in a apartment with shitty neighbours who bother me even during day time.
7 - What about the acoustic set?
That's my aunts set. Im going there on holidays so I will be able to film some more.
8 - What are/is the size/brand/price of the acoustic?
I'm not sure. All I know is that the drums are a mix of a Pearl and a Tama. The cymbols are all Zildjian
9 - How did you get the Tre Cool artist series sticks and the bag?
Bough it in my local music store.
10 - What kind of camera do you use?
i have a Sony HC-65 to film my videos.
11 - what do you use to record the audio?
i usually just use my camera microphone. but on my latest videos on the acoustic set i set up 3 microphones into a mixer and into my camera.
12 - Do you really live in China??
Used to, until august of 2008, in Macau. I moved back to brazil.
13 - can you please make a cover of (whatever) song?
I don't really take requests unless it interests me.
