  1. It may be a one-off' date=' around 17% of people who suffer schizophrenia have a solitary psychotic episode and then make a complete lifelong recovery. It seems to have set in early in your case, 19-26 tends to be the trigger age.[/quote']

    um... thank you. :gringo:

  2. Not exactly' date=' it's prescribed for treatment-resistant schizophrenia. It should nullify most of the positive symptoms, such as hallucinations and delusions.[/quote']

    oooooh cool. is it gringo man? he actually follows me about so its not really a hullucination or whatever.... hehe.... :gringo:

  3. Or' date=' instead of complaining you could do somthing more constructive with your time? Such as watch a movie. read a book, or even perhaps just sleep.[/quote']

    it was an observation not a complaint, and i am watching a movie as we speak, it's just not very good, and me book is upstairs.:gringo:

  4. um... yeah:dunce: hehe, oops. i don't really try to sound like people i try to follow their influence i that makes any sense, no it doesn't... not really. hehe. i dont know it's hard to explain. If i hear a song with good drumming (any style) I'll go and learn it. if there's a specific drummer that i like i will follow his/ her work. I'nm going in circles so I'll leave it for now. bleh! :gringo:

  5. holy crap there's a lot of posts on this, i hate pirate dvds! they annoy me! they suck. i hate xemn three. it's shit. I hate stubbing my toe of tables or doorways... it frickin hurts. Imean REALLY hurts!!!! i hate people who laugh at you banging your funny elbow, it's not funny, you assholes.:gringo:

  6. My two-penneth worth:

    Start off slow' date=' and only build up speed gradually when you can play nice and evenly at a slower pace. Initially aim for accuracy, and consistency of sound on both feet. If you start off at a million miles an hour, your playing will be a shambles.

    Practice simple 16th note and triplet patterns using single-strokes, double-strokes, paradiddles on the feet whilst playing simple 4/4 time with the hands. For example, as follows:

    1e+a2e+a3e+a4e+a

    RLRLRLRLRLRLRLRLR

    1e+a2e+a3e+a4e+a

    RRLLRRLLRRLLRRLL

    1e+a2e+a3e+a4e+a

    RLRRLRLLRLRRLRLL

    Also try these starting off with the left foot. Play each pattern 20 times daily....boring, but this works, trust me. Great 4-way independence exercises too.

    Also, practice playing lots of DIFFERENT double bass grooves.....not just dugga-dugga-dugga-dugga. IMO, some of the licks in early Metallica, Pantera stuff makes for very good learning material.

    Couple of "recommended listening" tunes:

    [b']One - ...And Justice For All: Loads of good stuff here to learn....the half-time 16th note triplet groove played after the 1st guitar solo.....plus the 32th note triplets often played immediately before the backbeat during the double-time section at the end of the song.....ability to play these triplet "ruffs" is an essential DBP skill. Just about every metal drummer uses this lick.

    Pantera - Domination: Cool, but straightforward DB beat....nice DB fills.....awesome song.

    Doesnt matter if you dont nail these straight away....this stuff isnt easy, but is definitely achievable with practice.

    Hope that helps. Best o' luck.

    for real this is a huge help! thanks very much. LATERS!!!!:gringo:
