Dude, I hadn't checked my wall in ages, so I apologize for not responding to your post. Rudiments are indeed hell when you're first learning them, but once you integrate them into full kit drumming, the things you come across are incredible. Best of luck to you, feel free to send some stuff over if you ever begin to film/record.

Cool man. Nice to know there's plenty of fellow drummers here on AP.
Been playing for only 9/10 months, but it's been fun. Rudiments aren't so fun though...

Rad stuff.
