My #sundayseat from the 12th. I brought the Tama Starclassic Bubinga as my secondary to the Mapex Black Panther Sledgehammer snare. #worshipdrummer #pdpconceptlimitedmaple #inkeddrummer #pierceddrummer #beardeddrummer #ibringmyownfan #chronicpaindrummer #dw9000 #knockoutbeaters #tamafirstchair #cherryhilldrums #cententcymbals #evansdrumheads #puresoundwires #mapexblackpanthersledgehammer #tamastarclassicbubinga #techradrumsticks #aheaddrumsticks #promarkdrumsticks #iamtheghostdrummer https://www.instagram.com/p/Cop9oE-SVZ3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So blessed to still be able to play my drums...I saw my doc today...the next step is surgery on my neck. I see the surgeon Feb 1st and we will go from there. In the meantime, I’m going to continue with life and drumming. @promarkbydaddario @evansdrumheads @dwdrums @ocdpdrumsofficial @rogersdrums_official @pearl_drums @istanbulmehmet #istanbulmehmetcymbals #evansdrumheads #promarksticks #puresoundwires #ocdpdrums #pearlmastercustommmx #rogerspowertone #dw9000 #ibringmyownfan #blesseddrummer #pierceddrummer #inkeddrummer #worshipdrummer #beardeddrummer #goateeddrummer #iamtheghostdrummer https://www.instagram.com/p/CKNE_yOh0TF/?igshid=1ddq1ehqxdv5e

Liking these shots, but I forgot the led colors aren’t always the same in a pic as they are in person…didn’t realize it was this dark until now. #worshipdrummer #pdpconceptlimitedmaple #inkeddrummer #pierceddrummer #beardeddrummer #ibringmyownfan #chronicpaindrummer #dw9000 #knockoutbeaters #tamafirstchair #cherryhilldrums #istanbulmehmetcymbals #vintagerogerssnare #rogerspowertone #evansdrumheads #puresoundwires #mapexblackpanthersledgehammer #techradrumsticks #aheaddrumsticks #promarkdrumsticks #iamtheghostdrummer https://www.instagram.com/p/CqRuBNYLjAR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

When you wake up and can’t figure out why you’re so tired, but then it dawns on you that it’s daylight savings so your 3 hours of sleep was actually only two. Todays gonna be a good day!!!!! #sundayseat #worshipdrummer #inkeddrummer #pierceddrummer #beardeddrummer #ibringmyownfan #pdpconceptmaple #chronicpaindrummer #rogers #dw9000 #knockoutbeaters #tamafirstchair #cherryhilldrums #istanbulmehmetcymbals #evansdrumheads #puresoundwires #mapexblackpanthersledgehammer #techradrumsticks #aheaddrumsticks #promarkdrumsticks #iamtheghostdrummer https://www.instagram.com/p/CpsP6DOLFyg/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I love PureSound wires. The first snare has Twisted 20 wires, and the second snare has Super 30 wires. All of my snares except the Rogers PowerTone have PureSound wires. The Rogers PowerTone has a Gibraltar 42 strand wire. It’s extremely expensive to try different combinations of batter (top) and reso (bottom) heads. I use Evans heads. I’m thankful I’ve been able to try just about every head Evans makes to find the few combos I utilize the most. All my snares run either the Clear 300 or Clear 500 reso heads and the batters are usually the HD Dry, UV1, UV2, or Hydraulic. Someday I’ll do a full gear breakdown. #evansdrumheads #puresoundwires #puresoundsuper30 #puresoundtwisted20 #worshipdrummer #inkeddrummer #pierceddrummer #beardeddrummer #chronicpaindrummer #iamtheghostdrummer https://www.instagram.com/p/CoMbSevu_al/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Well, I almost used every cymbal I have…I didn’t bring in enough stands. We’ll see if it works tomorrow. #worshipdrummer #pdpconceptlimitedmaple #inkeddrummer #pierceddrummer #beardeddrummer #ibringmyownfan #chronicpaindrummer #dw9000 #knockoutbeaters #tamafirstchair #istanbulmehmetcymbals #evansdrumheads #puresoundwires #mapexblackpanthersledgehammer #techradrumsticks #aheaddrumsticks #rogerssnare #promarkdrumsticks #iamtheghostdrummer https://www.instagram.com/p/CntLCLSOvCe/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

First #sundayseat behind the kit after my second #acdfsurgery 7 weeks ago. Neck is doing well. Still don’t have much of a voice, but it’s slowly returning. Brought in my #istanbulmehmetcymbals and my #tamametalworks #handengraved as the secondary snare. Of course there’s always the #mapexblackpanthersledgehammer primary snare. #dw9000 #knockoutbeaters #promarksticks #techradrumsticks #aheadsticks #evansdrumheads #pdpconceptmaple #tamafirstchair #64audio #puresoundwires #worshipdrummer #poeticdrummer #inkeddrummer #pierceddrummer #beardeddrummer #chronicpaindrummer #iamtheghostdrummer https://www.instagram.com/p/CnndkZHPXRo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Another beautiful morning. Neck is doing good. Still can’t talk much, but that’s not always a bad thing. Feels like my throat is being crushed a little bit, but the doc said that would be the case for a while due to what he had to do. Pain wise I’m doing good, although my low back and right hip are hurting a lot. Most likely from not being able to do much yet. All in all, I feel better than I did after the first surgery, so I’m believing things are going to be better this time around. #chronicpainwarrior #acdfrecovery #imtoooldforthis #brokendrummer #worshipdrummer #inkeddrummer #pierceddrummer #beardeddrummer #iamtheghostdrummer https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl8PdWVOcy3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

All’s well that ends well. Surgery was successful. The hardware, cage, and screws had to be replaced. I’m already at home, had potato soup, and currently enjoying a large strawberry milkshake. Thank you all for prayers and support…I will post updates as time moves forward. @westvallymed Thank you for the kind staff…everyone was so amazing today. #chronicpainwarrior #westvalleymedicalcenter #shortdowntime #backbehindthekitinnotime #Inkeddrummer #pierceddrummer #beardeddrummer #chronicpaindrummer #neckbracedrummer #brokeneckdrummer #justjokingdrummer #iamtheghostdrummer https://www.instagram.com/p/ClmvqksP5P9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Sunday 11/27 - All Hail King Jesus. I didn’t realize how much I was in the zone until I watched the video. I’m believing that this 2nd surgery on my neck will be just as effective as the first…I’ll need to make sure I stay away from people running stop signs this time. Hopefully the next time I record I’ll have the gear to capture what I’m hearing so it’s not just the drums. #inthegroove #worshipdrummer #inkeddrummer #pierceddrummer #beardeddrummer #chronicpaindrummer #ibringmyownfan #dw9000 #knockoutbeaters #tamafirstchair #cherryhilldrums #istanbulmehmetcymbals #evansdrumheads #puresoundwires #mapexblackpanthersledgehammer #techradrumsticks #aheaddrumsticks #promarkdrumsticks #iamtheghostdrummer https://www.instagram.com/p/ClkJihBP5bJ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Haven’t really posted personal stuff in a while. The neck surgery I had in March of last year failed. The screws at C6/C7 didn’t fuse to the bone and are loose. This is causing the hardware to move and is becoming more and more painful every day. I’ll be going in on the 30th to have the surgery redone. Looking at a 6-8 week recovery. #istanbulmehmetcymbals #ludwigvistalite #evansdrumheads #dw9000 #knockoutbeaters #tamafirstchair #splstreetbop #techradrumsticks #promarksticks #aheaddrumsticks #daddario #puresoundwires #meinldrumrug #chronicpainwarrior #chronicpaindrummer #worshipdrummer #inkeddrummer #pierceddrummer #beardeddrummer #iamtheghostdrummer https://www.instagram.com/p/Ckmab6WvEv8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Mix & Match Pearl Free Floater Snare. I swapped out the Pearl maple shell for a Ludwig steel shell I found for $5. I couldn’t get the maple shell to tune no matter the head combo. This combo is awesome sounding. #pearl #freefloater #ludwig #puresoundsuper30 #evansdrumheads #visionarydrum #worshipdrummer #inkeddrummer #pierceddrummer #beardeddrummer #iamtheghostdrummer https://www.instagram.com/p/CkfdXOOOJ2v/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I love this crew!!!!! Practice nights are difficult for me sometimes. Because I don’t sleep very well, by the time 7pm rolls around, my body is done. Being able to play the drums is one of the few freedoms I have left and it’s not getting easier. But, chilling with these guys makes it a little easier. @_.seventytimesseven._ #worshipdrummer #beardeddrummer #inkeddrummer #pierceddrummer #chronicpaindrummer #iamtheghostdrummer https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj13yWNuKfy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
