 Drumming at the office . . .
i've seriously been thinking about putting a double pedal
underneath my desk at work and a kick practice pad so i can
practice while at my computer...i'm not blesed with a practice
room or a place to set up my kit. so i'm trying to come up
with alternatives...
anyone do anything cool to keep the chops up without a drumset?

I'd do that if I could. At school I just practice heel down. It really helps.

Practice in your mind. When you get home, you'll have new things figured out.

There's no sound from his set, but he's doing everything pretty close to right. I've seen some other vids of him, he's pretty good.

you can always get a pair of these for work. I have them and they're great. Quite, compact, and easy to move/set up.

Ben accused of banging my head
I work with the public and mostly stand. Lots o stuff to tap on though. I can use my wedding ring for accent. Hit my toe straight down with my leg back on wood floors gives a little punch
