Drummers on Drumming

The Drum Panel: 2024's Biggest Wins, Unexpected Lessons, and the Stack Debate

Listen Later

Episode 9 of The Drum Panel

Welcome to The Drum Panel—a show where a rotating group of professional drummers engages in roundtable discussions pertaining to all things DRUM.

For today's panel, we have my co-host Eric Urrea and special guest, Kris Mazzarisi (owner/founder of Big Fat Snare Drum & drummer for Winnetka Bowling League).

Today we discuss:

  • What was the most game-changing moment in your drumming or musical journey this year?
  • Which performance, session, or project from this year holds a special place in your heart—and what made it so meaningful?
  • What’s one surprising thing you discovered about yourself as a musician this year?
  • Did any piece of gear or tool unexpectedly transform your playing this year? Share your story!
  • Hot take: Is spending more than $100 on a stack just plain unnecessary?
  • Time to settle the debate—Is Buddy Rich a legend or just overhyped?
  • Let’s get it out there: What are some of your biggest drumming pet peeve?
