		<description><![CDATA[A few weeks ago, I received an email from a friend I used to march with in the Mandarins Drum and Bugle Corps:
I wanted to ask you to think about it another way — instead of black and white index and middle finger, what about a shared fulcrum? I have students in San Jose who [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I like Murray Gusseck.  I don&#8217;t know the guy personally, only his work and reputation.  I think he&#8217;s brought some interesting concepts to the world of drumline and I like some of the pieces he&#8217;s written for battery.  I may not always agree with what he teaches, but I respect him and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The use of the fulcrum has, to my knowledge, been a greatly examined topic and subject to much experimentation, especially in regards to match grip mechanics (which is what this post deals with).  I&#8217;ve observed more attention being brought to it in the past decade or so, maybe because of my particular environment and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been teaching quite a few younger students lately.  Anyone with experience teaching younger drum students has run into the problem of mashing the sticks into the pad or drum.  It&#8217;s a natural problem for young students; it&#8217;s natural for someone to pick up drum sticks for the first time and then bang [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As Obi Wan Kenobi told Luke in Return of the Jedi, &#8220;You&#8217;re going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view.&#8221;
An educated drummer will probably know what is meant when a drum teacher says, &#8220;Let the bounce do the work,&#8221; or, &#8220;Let the rebound do [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I got out of the car about 7:30 last night and heard someone playing his drum set.
Oh&#8230; we live in a condo, by the way.
It didn&#8217;t bother my wife and me because we live on the other end of the building so we didn&#8217;t really hear it unless we were actually listening for it, but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m pretty sure it was my age-out year of drum corps.  I was walking across the gym at our housing site with my instructor/mentor/friend/boss, talking about&#8230; drums, probably&#8230; and we passed by one of my fellow snare players ramming beats on his pad.  We asked him what he was doing and he said [...]]]></description>
