My ideal choice would be to have a drummer play with us. After begging my brother in law and my partner's brother to buy drums (both are great drummers) for over a year I gave up. There's something about canned drums (CD or otherwise) that just really bugs me. It doesn't feel genuine even though every note and drum beat is mine or my buddies. Plus with a drummer you can do things with songs (extend solos etc) that can't be done with canned sounds. The songs I enjoy doing the most are the ones that the drum doesn't really need to be there and so, we don't do the canned drummer. Some songs though sound semi empty without the drums. Most of the "gigs" we do are small crowds where we know most of the people and they don't really care about the canned drums. I'm still hoping one of those guys will buy the darned drums! A live drummer is a huge presence. But, meanwhile...................... __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
