RCRD LBL

PPO OR HMO???

So I am at  a new job and I gotta figure out what Medical partner to use....Maybe I should watch SICKO and then flee the US out of pure fright..... See, this is important because I gotta figure out a way to insure my wrist...We have so many shows this week and if that trend continues -which I hope it does - my wrist will totally go dead. Any drummers out there willing to give me some warm up tips????

For those of you in LA, we have 6 shows within the next week and a half, starting tomorrow in LONG BEACH with our buddies, WET CASSETTE - who happen to be 3/4 of ROLLING BLACKOUTS(www.myspace.com/rollingblackouts)- then it all ends September 13 @ The Knitting Factory in Hollywood....Ewwww, Hollywood. In between though, there are plenty of excellent shows to come to. Check the page for details. For those not in Los Angeles.....Sorry..

Jonathan and I hope you enjoyed the two tunes that we've posted for you. Within the next week or two we will be posting another tune for you RCRDLBL peeps. So, stay tuned.

I guess that's it for now....Drummers...I'm serious....Help me?

Love,

Sean Voyeur

Young Rascals/Vanilla Fudge - White-Hot-Soul-Drum-Mess

So you see some cock-rock drummer nodding, grimacing, pointing his sticks, tossing and twirling his sticks, and you want to die. Here at Prayers HQ, we're all for the extroverted, visually-arresting stage moves, all the saucy antics, but unfortunately, somwhere in the late 80s, drummers 'did too much' and forfeited their share in this game. They couldn't help themselves and crossed the line, so now it's all irony and cliche. IT WASN"T ALWAYS THAT WAY!
Shall we go way back and remember the kids who where the first pop-rock drummers to mesmerize us with their acrobatics? (Jazz and Big Band sticksmen have probably been doing this stuff for a hundred years...)
Here's Dino Danelli of the (Young) Rascals and Carmine Appice of Vanilla Fudge showing you how it's done.

Mind Mr. Organ Player as well!

XO!
The Prayers
