Thanks Mark,

I appreciate your time checking it out. Also reminded me to fix my credits. I played most of the drums on my album but was not the drummer on this one. I wasn't able to play that night so my friend did.

When I play them I use a click track and never miss a beat, I mean like never! lol Money betting never lol Three hours a day with a metronome and the pad and recording drums every other night of the week will do that But when someone can't it's way worse trying to make them play to one, so this one song was done live no click.
Countless songs and recordings have been done without them, so I was cool with that on this..

And especially since it's a Rock song it really didn't hurt it too much. Also snare drums in many rock songs are pretty loud.
It's a vintage deep Slingerland chrome snare
With the extra wide springs installed underneath. Miked top & bottom... Ah unless he switched out snares that night, hard for me to remember He uses a thinner one very very tight. more knock in it.

A bit hot or loud? yeah! especially during the ending fade, obnoxiously high or loud? I don't think so. Way too many others in the control room would have pointed that out.
If I was even to re-visit it I'd maybe just squash it some more to keep it more consistent.

I like your material too by the way, it's funny that you play drums but all the songs have no drums. Don't let the songwriter you take that away

Thanks
