Drum Tip of the Day:

Drum Tip: Stay loose and let the sticks do the work.

Quote of the Day:

Quote: "Every drummer that had a name, had a name because of his individual playing. He didn't sound like anybody else, So everybody that I ever listened to, in some form, influenced my taste." - Buddy Rich

Yeah John Legend !!!

John Legend this past week took time away from his tour with Sade to launch the P & G and Communities in Schools GIVE campaign to raise money to improve high school drop out rates. He performed with the MS 390 Choir from the Bronx. Looking more into that I found out that Legend has leadership roles in Teach for America, Education Equality Project, and Harlem Village Academies! How cool that someone as successful as him can be so down to earth and take time to contribute to a good cause.


Being an ex-public school teacher I still feel a bit of attachment to the cause and am glad to see work done to help solve the issues in struggling urban school districts.


Give John Legend and the GIVE campaign some love:
