Influences
You Should Play the Drums
You are often hyper, restless, and full of a little too much zeal.
However, people may be surprised to know that you can focus your energy well.

You are driven and engaged enough to be a great drummer... and you have the stamina to practice for hours.
In fact, when you can channel your energy productively, it only increases!

You are independent and spirited... but also consistent. You can definitely keep the beat.
You work well in a group and contribute heartily - without needing to take the lead.

Your dominant personality characteristic: your aggression

Your secondary personality characteristic: your precision

+ Vinnie Colaiuta
+ Steve Gadd
+ Jeff Porcaro
+ Manu Katchè
+ Bill Bruford
+ Omar Hakim
+ Alan Alda
+ Dr. Cliff Edwards
+ Pookie Weisman
+ Dr. Nick Sharp
+ JFKSWCS
+ LTC North
+ Will Gurkey
+ Grandmaster Phong Huang
+ Master Larry Cabiniss

+ Dad

"Great grooves, Mann!" Dino Haak, Megatar

"I love your drumming! Groove, feel AND technique!" Jacob C. Holm-Lupo, White Willow

"Cool sticks; I love & use them. You rock! Great vibes your way." G [Gonzo, drummer for Armored Saint]

"[Doc is] like a luxurious shampoo and conditioning treatment - the nice, organic plant-essence kind: if I can't have one once a day, then every other day would work just fine. Longer than that and I start to feel greasy and cranky." -- Valerie Madsen: Seattle Seahawks Blue Thunder, Independent
