King of Percussion
Today we blasted through all of percussion on the Josh and Neal stuff. Martin is the king of percussion. He did a lot of orchestral percussion work back in his Texas days so he knows all of the crazy techniques. I think my personal favorite is one I’ve dubbed “ride the snake” which is basically making your arm look like a snake and shaking it all around…with a tamborine in your hand.
We also got some good gang claps done on the song “Shithouse.”
