Before I started rocking my chinese prostate treatment I used to rock the drums in hard rock bands. That was a long time ago. Everybody was against my hobby, but after watching Keith Moon on the kit one day I just got hit with the sickness and that was that. I don’t have any talent for drums because I am not one of those people who can listen to a song or watch a drummer play and copy it immediately. It’s just very hard for me. But I have a flawless sense of time and get really hard and I put a lot of feeling into it. So that sort of carried me through the years. I practiced a lot, but just hit that wall where I couldn’t get any better and if you want to make a living as a drummer, you need to be a superstar. Plus, one side of my body isn’t as balanced as the other and even though I developed ambidexterity to improve my playing, I never fully corrected my imbalance.
Nonetheless, I have no regrets because I gave it my all and that is what is important. So many people just do what they hate day-after-day and it catches up with them one day in a nasty way.
