Hey I'm JP and I like to play drums and games. In my posts on this blog I guess I'll post about the current things I'm playing, whether it be on the drums or online. I'll try to post up things I'm working on the drum kit, games that I'm playing on my relatively new HP gaming laptop (an HP dv9825nr notebook nothing too fancy), etc. I'll also post up interesting things that I find online, like sites with free drum tabs, or how to play the drums, or how to play online PC games, game cheats, etc. All that good stuff!

Well lets see.. My old drumset was a kit from Ludwig drums, but I sold that one. Now my drumkit is a PDP CX Series and all of my cymbals are Zildjian. I like Zildjian cause the name sounds so cool! And the sound of the cymbals are even better. I like to play all kinds of stuff, jamming with buddies, playing in combos, etc.

My favorite game right now has to be Team Fortress 2. Used to be Counter Strike back in the day. Now I play lots of games on Steam (which you can get on www.steampowered.com) like: COD4, HL1, HL2, CS Source, Plants vs Zombies, Need For Speed Undercover, Fallout 3, Left 4 Dead, Portal, etc. The list goes on haha.


-edit-


I'll share some of my favorite Youtube videos of drummers that I've watched over the years.




Tony Royster Jr drum solo at twelve years old, and already he's years ahead of me.





I like Tower of Power alot, and Fran Merante can groove pretty hard. I wish I could play like David Garibaldi though..




I used to play this song (Mercy Mercy) in my high school jazz band.




Dennis Chambers. I wish I was anywhere near as fast as he is.
