Can making your drums sound better (through tuning or mixing/mic'ing) actually make you a better drummer? I think so...Man, what a week it's been for me. I hope it's been a week for you. It's a week in all caps. Man, it's been a WEEK. We've talked a little bit about all the things that are going on, and this episode's coming out on Friday, so hopefully we're a few days away from the launch of my next big thing.
