My friend and I recently got hired on teaching the DL at a new high school built here in our town. Good news is the kids were transferred from other schools in the area who already have decent drum programs so we have a pretty decent group of players. Bad news is the director wants to get a head start on winter season so we can "come out with a bang!" and we don't have a show with no time to really come up with anything this fast on our own. Does anyone know of a place where you can purchase winter shows on line? I hate the thought of having to do this but it's kind of our only choice at this point in time. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The percussion ensemble at Troy is playing a "west african" style piece this semester. The whole piece is based off of a pattern split between two toca bells. I heard this rhythm, and my mind kind of just said "write this for drumline"
and so I did.
I present to you the "AfriDrum" Extremly Advanced 60 Second Warmup for: Snare Line Tenor Line (atleast 4 players) Basses (5) Whenver you hear two seperate tenor parts, that's when the section would split the tenor line. This is only the first version, so there will probably be some revisions soon. Hope you enjoy.

hello  my school just bought a mapex quantum XT marching snare. Is it just me, or is the hardware that attaches to the drum really sketchy? can someone tell me how to install it?

Does anybody here have any experience with putting vaseline on the underside of the batter head around the edges? I know this is done, but my problem is that the vaseline is "bleeding" though to the top of an Evans Hybrid head. Students in the line I'm teaching got a hold of the new heads while the BD stepped out and put the vaseline on.
I haven't seen the heads yet but the BD said they look really bad now. Anybody have any experience with this?
Thanks in advance!
