A drum-driven show last night, big time:
http://www.archive.org/details/AudiobrailleLive2009-01-16
Super fun. Not too much Linux going on there, just my usual Fluidsynth, AZR3-JACK, and AMS
stuff, with a little WhySynth and NekoString too. The drummers were driving the bus all
night, and, IMHO, they did a fine job of it.
Example here:

I'm starting to get quicker at editing these shows in Ardour, so I can post them the
morning after.

Barely Linux !
It's a shame ! ;-)

mind.

Nice
session...
I am wondering, what is a good way to learn some drumming? I was
thinking of just buying a snare drum and two sticks...

Actually a practice pad and a set of thicker sticks, like the Vic Firth

also work with the book "Stick Control" by George Stone. The Percussive

I would save your money to get drums that you would like to play- e.g.
congas or other sort of hand drum, drum set, etc.

I would personally recommend buying also a kick drum and a hihat, aka. a
small drum kit, as you will have then muscle memory for the legs also. It's
one of the most important parts to get the hands and the legs to work
independently.

While we're on the subject - anyone know a good book or place to go
online for hand drum patterns? I have a djembek (brass bodied hand drum
with a head about 25 cm in diameter) which I want to learn to play
properly. I bought "The Drummer's Complete Vocabulary", which is good as
far as I can see but really meant for drum kits, so I'm having to adapt
the patterns. I'd like something meant specifically for this kind of
drum, or maybe for the bigger wooden djembes that are quite common.

31 years ago I bought a pair of sticks. I couldn't afford the drum,
so I used cardboard boxes. These days you could use a 5 gallon
plastic bucket, like street drummers sometimes use. It doesn't
matter how you start; just start. Lessons will speed up your
learning, and keep you from falling into traps from teaching yourself.
You could get an instructional video too.
G'luck...

Actually there are so many fantastic videos on YouTube, available for free, it's
astounding. Who do you want to study? Vinnie Colaiuta? Terry Bozzio? Steve Gadd? Stewart
Copeland? Back when I was a kid, you had to buy instructional videos and they cost a lot
of money. Nowadays you can just fire up teh YouTubes and see any amazing musician you care
to FOR FREE! It's a resource I would have killed for when I was a kid.
Not just drums, and not just funk or jazz either. How 'bout this:

Pick your virtuoso, type their name into YouTube, watch, listen, and learn. The sky's
the limit.

I recommend that you watch Dave Weckl instructional videos:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhSURjNmKRo
...
These are from his Natural Evolution DVDs. It really helped me to learn how to hold
sticks!
And finally, you can do this:

Or at least try ;-)
