251. Write the date on your drumheads
when you change them. This makes it easier to track when
you last changed them.
252. Remember that although drum
tabs can be helpful, they are not a substitute for learning
to read. Please take the time to learn to read music. You will
be grateful you did!
253. Slow down that song so you
can hear the drum parts. They make tape recorders and other
audio gear that has "pitch control". It's a wise investment
for those that do a lot of transcribing.
254. Combine rudiments for some
interesting combinations of rhythm. It's a great way to come
up with new ideas for drum parts. Apply them across the drums
using different pitched percussion.
Tip:

BUM, you're missing out!

destinations.
255. Mark the bottom of your favorite
pair of drumsticks with an X. This way you can quickly see
them among all the others when you're looking down at your stick
bag.
256. Most drummers don't tune the bottom
of their snare drum tight enough. This is where you get
your snare response.

257. Don't just play, but climb inside
the groove! "Feel" the music and become one with
it. This may sound a bit weird to some but try it and you'll
experience a whole new depth to music that you've never known
before.
258. Use a brillo pad or fine steel
wool to clean your cymbal stands. It will take the rust
out as well as blemishes that often show up in chrome.

259. Are you getting the most of your drum
lessons? I've known some drummers that have taken drum lessons
with the same drum teacher for over 10 years. It leaves me wondering
if they're really benefiting from those lessons the way they
should be. Evaluate your progress now and then and be sure you're
getting your moneys worth. Take lessons with other teachers
now and then so you can compare teaching styles and progress.
300. Keep a permanant marker with your
drums. You can help write set lists, write small notes on
your drumheads when necessary or initial drum accessories.
