Pud,
Are you really drumming in the header photo of Ask Pud, or are you beating the sh*t out of something for no reason somewhere that just happens to have a cymbal in the background (it could happen). And if so, do you consider yourself “a good drummer”?

SKL,
I am indeed drumming in that pic – here’s a link to the full photo. The photo was taken by Scott Beale, a friend and great photographer. Scott took the pic in one of the “jam rooms” at the Experience Music Museaum in Seattle, Washinton. We were both there for the Gnomedex conference in 2006 where I was speaking.
As for being a good drummer, you be the judge. Just kidding – I’m awesome. Just kidding. Seriously, here’s a video.
Dude!
Kick ass skinwork! Nice kit, too.
That little rhythm you do with the high hate and ride at the 43 second mark makes me all a flutter as a fellow drummer.
Aside from needing a metronome, this was stellar. I love your fills!
could you post a top-level view of your setup? like a diagram.
and i’d like to know which cymbals you use. thanks.
Hey Pud,
You need to smoke a good Cuban cigar. Why not sign up on the cigaraficionado.com and help me annoy all the cigar snobs.
