I have been playing by ear for my entire life and have had a stool under my tush for about 14 years. I play a Roland TD-6V drum set. It has incorperated in it's memory 99 pre made drum sets (including the one I set up) as well as about 200 off the wall sounds like car horn, bomb etc. (My set uses 3 cymble, snare with rim shot sounds, 4 Toms, a Percussion Hi Hat Cymbles, and of course the base
I practice a minimum of 1-2 hours daily ( am recently retired/board out of my mind so I have been spending ,more time in my music, I have been in two bands, and for reasons I didn't connect with the management of the band (Never kissed ass in my work life I surely won't when I am looking for entertainment) every encounter teaches me more music, more about the life.
LOOKING FOR THE DREAM all my life I have wished for few things, that have not come about, except for playing music, my music before a audiance (One that is free to Boo or leave) with a band, and have fun, and the audance loves it, but at 56 It might be too late you tell me

Past Events
Hi I am a 56 year old guy who has his first memory with music, holding myself up to a coffee table, and tapping away. And it grew from there. In 1999 I actually graduated from air drummer to one who actually has a instroment, and after a great geal of set up, I can honestly say I can play right along with my local oldies radio station, or if I get on with a comercial, I have plenty of CDs From Arrow Smith to ZZ TOP. But if I had to choose, it would be CCR or Going Deep Purlpe
