In this episode, Nick Ruffini, host and creator of The Drummers Resource sit down with Zack Albetta and Matt Crouse, the hosts of Working Drummer to catch up from last year’s episode. The idea behind this round table came from the fact that all three of us were going through major life changes that effected our music careers in one way or another. We decided to check back in close to a year later and discuss some of the many things that have transpired over that time.

In this episode Nick, Zack, and Matt talk about:

* Catching up from last year’s roundtable

* Opportunities in the music business outside of performing

* The “Gig Triangle” – the money, the music, the hang

* Allowing other things outside music to be a part of your identity

* How and what we practice

* Handling failures

* Time management and finding ways to be productive throughout each day

* Ageism in the music business

* Upcoming guests for Drummers Resource and WDP

* This weeks episode is sponsored by Crush Drums
