Mga GIG tips mula sa mga kapatid na tambolista

[9_spiral]

Mga sir, standard ba ang size ng mga hi-hat clutch? Dati kasi, nagdala ako ng sarili kong clutch sa bar, hindi nagkasya. Or meron bang clutch na fits all? Hehe.

[technical1]

Ito naman sa akin share ko lang po hehehe

1. Bring your own water bili ka ng lock and lock na 700ml ayus na yun hehe
(IME) Madalas kasi kapag humingi ako ng tubig it's either walang service water or Alak ang ibinibigay hehe

2. Bring a velcro strap. In my case I always bring 2 pcs. 8 inches ang length.
(IME) There are times kasi na yung left pedal ko lumalayo especially kapag di maganda ang carpet dumudulas lang yung velcro ng peds ko sa ilalim e. (Kung walang Anchors ang Ped mo kailangan mo ito lalo na kung double pedal user ka.) 

3. Check your pedal screw's make sure it's tight enough before you play. You don't want your beater or your shaft going away while your in the middle of your song hehe!
(Nangyari na sakin ito lumipad yung beater sa right pedal ko buti na lang I can somehow use my left foot as the lead kick yun nga lang may parts na alam mo dapat e meron ka dapat two kicks kaya ayun magtutunog kulang yung song hehehe)

4. Do a full body stretch kung may time (I'm a muay practitioner kasi so I'm always doing a full body stretch routine before I play or before magsetup ng kit , IME malaki ang impact sa flexiblity, stamina and playing ko kapag di ako nakapag stretching)

5. Don't hit too hard and Don't drink too much alcohol. (When you hit too hard or when you're excerting much power you'll end up exhausted earlier even before you finish your set of song's and in relevance to drinking too much there are times that you don't even notice that you playing too hard when you are under the influence of alcohol and you might end up damaging the skin's or cracking up your cymbals  

6. Check your throne! or the bar's throne! kung may dala ka eh di ok kapag wala hehehe ingat ka baka maging fallen drummer ka at makita mo ang sarili mo sa youtube! hahahaha

7. Bring extra hardware's felt , clutch , boom arm's incase cymbal stand's ayun alam naman nating lahat ito hehe

8.Last but not the least. I always play na naka shorts not maong , manipis lang sya di lampas tuhod hehe para syang running shorts pero hindi ganun kaiksi  .
(IMO) when I'm playing with pants parang me pumipigil kasi na di ko maintindihan and result is bawas flexibility when i'm playing e hehe and yung sweat make's me feel heavier ayun  arte ko ah hahahaha

Yan na po hehehe I hope may naitulong ako sa mga fellow drummers natin!    Happy Drumming

parang na sabi na lahat dito ah. hehe!

magdala ng metronome sa gig if possible. experience ko to dati. specially kung may na unang  banda sa inyo. Either sobrang bilis ang tugtugan nila or sobrang dragging. Sometimes ma capture ka dun sa metronome nila at ma affected usually ang first song ng band. so what i do before starting the first song is i set a specific metronome to reset my band's metronome. i use the headphones and click the sticks so everyone can hear it. i do this around 20 clicks to make sure that everyone is synchronized to a specific metronome. pag posok ng first song, locked agad lahat!

Ok lang yan sir, mas pabor yan lalo na sa mga inexperienced like me...

And I can tell na madami pang she-share ang mga co-drummers natin....
