This is another one of my favorite #LightTheTorch songs to play live! We were actually opening with it on the KSE/ABR tour, too. I like it as an opener - relative to some of the rest of the LTT material, it's actually got a few tricky parts in it. because of the tempo, it's a good warm-up for my right foot as well. So as an opening song live, it's kinda nice - not TOO hard, but not the easiest... just kinda gets me primed up for the rest of the set! I mean, I always warm-up on pads first too (Lol), that surely get me loose. But it's always a tad bit different when you start playing on actual drums (as opposed to pads) - you sorta have to warm up a bit MORE to get into that 'comfortable live performance' level, that's only possible on real drums (it's kinda hard to explain ππ. But if you're a drummer, you might have some idea of what I'm talkin' about!). My POINT is: As the opening song in a live performance, this track is a ton of fun. It also happens to be a killer song overall, too! (Howard sure knows how to write a catchy chorus. AMIRITE ya'll ?!) • BIG LOVE to Declan White for the SICK mix! I was actually super pumped with how this one turned out (!) - Declan's been mixing stuff for me for awhile now, but he never fails to impress. I especially like how the snare turned out --- 14x6.5 #Tama SLP Sonic Stainless Steel. I've had this snare for awhile, but haven't used it all too much. Hearing it in this mix... I think I'm gonna have to pull it out more often! πππΌ • KIT SPECS !!! • Tama STAR Maple (in Smoky Black) • 10x6.5 • 12x7 • 14x11 • 16x13 • 20x16 • 14x6.5 SLP Sonic Stainless Steel • Tama Signature Drumsticks (check them out for yourself using the links below!) - • On MusiciansFriend - https://bit.ly/3pCxIvk • On Tama's Website - https://bit.ly/2MawCcA • #Meinl Cymbals (from left to right, if sitting behind the kit) • 18 Pure Alloy Medium Crash • 14 Byzance Traditional Medium Hi-Hats • 12 Classics Custom Trash Splash • 10 Classics Dark Splash • 13 Byzance Traditional Medium Hi-Hats *** • 19 Pure Alloy Medium Crash • 18 Pure Alloy China • 20 MB20 Heavy Bell Ride • *** - I didn't hit the 13 / Right-Side Hi-Hats at all in this song, so apologies if you were hoping to hear them!
