The Communist raised fist is a nice touch.

What, no hammer and sickle?

I use their Echo and Omar Hakim Signature sticks. Why thy jumped on this perverse bandwagon? They just want to be “cool,” is my guess. Ignorance abounds these days.

Vic Firth?
I think Firth is a Scottish term.
Wonder if Vic makes Black Bagpipes too?
Let’s see some ‘aspiring Rapper’ take that on!

My favorite was the black leaders showing up for the Chauvin verdict, raising the fist in defiance while obediently wearing the white man’s face diaper.

And ethnos shall rise against ethnos
And kingdom shall rise against kingdom (part of Matthew 24:7)

That happens during the last 3-1/2 years of the Tribulation.

And then shall be Great Tribulation as never such was.

This is one way the world is heading there - in a hurry - but virtually no one listens.

Because they’re too smart for all of that (Romans 1:22).

I use Regal for quite some time. Zildjian have an office here in Hollywood and they’re all assholes.

Oh man, et tu Vic?

I am working drummer and I use Vic Firth sticks exclusively. They truly are the best. Now I have find another brand.

I got rid of my Zildjian cymbals years ago. I prefer AA Meinl Byzance and Istanbul (for what it's worth).

Used to use Firth because I could find 7A’s..Try BOPWORKS drumsticks... they have historical versions for Swing, Memphis R&B, etc. Never liked the Z cymbals, use Paiste for years now.

Virtue signaling. Blacks make up about 1% of Scotland’s population.

A guy was a lead guitarist for a band. He was told one day that he was going to be replaced but he could still play if he played bass. But to play bass he, of course, had to have 1/4 of his brain removed.

Well, he needed the job and scheduled the surgery. When he woke up from the operation the surgeon was there and told him that he had made a mistake and removed a full half of the brain.

The guy said, “That’s fine. Do you have any drumsticks?”

Omar Hakim is good to go. As is Steve Gadd, whose sticks I sometimes use.

Just the thing to carry as a tertiary weapon to stab muggers in the eyes.
