| "To be
honest, I can tell that this is some pretty crazy stuff. I
haven't had loads of time to practice lately, however, what
little time I was able to spend on this technique helped me
instantaneously. You allowed the material to be learned
and understood in a pace that could be followed by anyone.
If it were up to me, I would
definitely show this information ONLY to your "Ballistic
Drummers." I pride myself on being a good drummer,
I've won drummer of the year where I take lessons and all that
crap, and I love finding new techniques to have up my sleeve
such as the "Tornado Chops" and "One Handed
Roll." As I'm sure you know, the feeling of having
someone ask you how you just did what you did on the kit is
unmatched by any other.
I myself haven't told anyone
about the lessons I purchased from you, including the obvious
"Ballistic" system, the "One Handed Roll",
the "Isotonik System" and now the "Tornado
Chops." Call me selfish, but I don't play the drums
just to be shown up by every other kid with $300 for a kit and a
pair of sticks. That's just not my style.
In conclusion, I just want to
thank you for doing what you are doing. Before I stumbled
across your ad in a magazine, I was becoming my teachers'
drummer so to speak. I had a one-sided approach to
drumming and this opened my eyes to what else was out there.
Just keep doing what you're
doing and know that crazies like me really appreciate it."
