When you shed do you guys learn off each other or do you guys end up battling to see who is better.......

I think that either way is a learning experience. If someone asks how I do something 9 times out of 10 I'll show them and vice versa. I think that battling is alright too because it forces you to think out the box if you're trading fours with someone. It'll become really obvious if you use the same rolls over and over throughout different breaks.

I feel true sheding is one on one with no spectators. If you and I are at the guitar center sitting on the kits. We both start a gogo beat and every 2 measure we do a 2 bar exchange and people start coming over and hanging around, I feel it has turned into a battle. Because people are starting to ooh ah etc! But if we stop and I say yo break what you just did down that was hot, it break the competive natural in my opinion.

A true shed

A true shed in my opinion is not an event where everyone comes to blow their load and try to show how great they are. When I am on tour, I have the opportunity to stop through various sheds with different players, (mostly church cats) and it is always the same. I leave with a headache and usually, it is a waste of my time. I could have been in the hotel catching up on sleep. I have had an opportunity to do sheds where various players came out and even though 2 kits were set up, only one person played at a time along with the bass and percussion. That was the best, because after each player, we asked questions about the execution of certain things. We also heard them play in a musical situation instead of a musical orgie. Pardon my language, but it is true. Clinical situations are usually the best way to learn. Try approaching the shed in a way that there is a focus and a goal. Everyone will grow!!

Kainos (Christian Rock) 2003, Johnny Freeman (pop) 2004 and I am currently the drummer for a funk/fusion band called "Il Culo" and I also play with "Baltimore Afrobeat Society" (Afrobeat)

I was the member of a 2 rock bands: Hazmat (Rap Rock) Another Time (Modern Rock)

I have also played with Lafayette Gilchrist (Avant Garde/Free Jazz) and The Swinging Swamis (blues/jazz)

I have also done production with Kalief (R&B) and I am the MD for "Fateemah" (Pop Rock)

Unfortunately I have not played drums in the gospel style. Only outside projects. I do play keys at church when I have a chance.
