Mike Burris's Interests
|
| General | Teaching DRUMS and PERCUSSION, drumming in my bands, gym, hiking, camping, good wines, dancing, watching bands, watching Smallville with my friends every week. | | Music | I like just about anything, but particularly music that's "clean" enough that you can pick out the individual instruments and vocals. Too much yelling or distortion just builds tension without any release - that's a "tease." | | Movies | I like Sci-Fi, Action, Comedy, or Drama that makes you think or brings out the good in you. | | Television | Smallville (the superman saga) is awesome! PBS/KUAT always educates and inspires me. | | Books | I've spent the last 5 years researching everything there is about teaching rhythm, drums, and percussion - 100's of books and magazines. All this research has been intergrated into "The CoreBeat System for Mastering Technique and Rhythm - Principles, Methods, and Exercises" and adapted for AzKrakatoa.com's 119 Online Videos and 8 DVD Packages. | | Heroes | We definitely need Heroes - people who inspire us to greater heights. This world is full of bad examples and mediocrity. My heroes in the media are Jean Luc Picard from Star Trek Next Generation, Clark Kent in Smallville, Neo from the Matrix. In the real world, I admire Jesus Christ, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreu, Socrates, Abraham Lincoln, and many others. |
