My new favourite word (this week) is paradiddies.

A paradiddie is a rudimentary drumming technique, which forms the basis of more complex patterns.

Who knew?

Well, apart from drummers, of course.

Diddie is something which I associate with the Scottish vernacular, and means something quite different from a drumming technique. 😂

Inside Zildjian, a 400-year-old cymbal-making company in Massachusetts.

From symphonies to rock music, marching bands and advertising jingles — we hear #Zildjian cymbals everywhere. Drummers across the globe know that name because it’s emblazoned on every gleaming disc. What’s less known is the Zildjian family has been making their famous cymbals — with a secret process — for more than 400 years.

It was recorded a few years ago, but was only just released; a long form interview with #PhilCollins on his #drumming, which is frankly the most interesting aspect of his musical repertoire . "I’m not a singer that plays a bit of drums; I’m more of a drummer that sings a bit”.

He was always more interesting behind the kit than in front of it, IMHO. His sound, his approach, was wildly more creative than many outside of drum nerd circles ever noticed.

Clint & Donut got down on their stomachs & crawled their way up to the chainlink fence around the jail exercise area. When Clint saw his brother, he whistled. His brother sauntered over & Clint passed him a cell phone.

"Hey! What you doing here?" demanded a CO.

"My dog ran away," Clint lied, heart #drumming in his ears. He put a hand on Donut. "But I got him now!"

The CO frowned. "Fine. Then scram!"

Clint nodded. He & Donut ran down the hill. Mission accomplished!
