An incredible drum roll from the Master, Manu Katche.  (it begins about 3:35... at about 4:55 he begins to roll with one foot. Wow.)

what a treat that was!

is the visual latency a feature of utube, or dependent on my local bandwidth access? it's there on everything, but obviously much more noticeable on vids that this.

the audio more than made up for it, the beat subdivisions were almost tabla level.

i can't tell if it's all the shiite running on my machine or it the tubez actually slow down sometimes, but especially on you tube, there are pauses often.  i blame facebook.

yeah, he's sweet.  seems as if he started the roll section because he catches a stick just before, and it seemed to throw him off from wherever he was going. so he changed direction. and the look on his face as he's down to one foot, keeping it going 'til his foot's about to fall off.

NewsDaily: Study says tailored music therapy can ease tinnitus
LONDON, Dec. 29, 2009 (Reuters) -- Individually designed music therapy may help reduce noise levels in people suffering from tinnitus, or ear ringing, German scientists said on Monday.
The researchers designed musical treatments adapted to the musical tastes of patients with ear-ringing and then stripped out sound frequencies that matched the individual's tinnitus frequency.

After a year of listening to these "notched" musical therapies, patients reported a distinct decrease in the loudness of ringing compared with those who had listened to non-tailored placebo music, the researchers wrote in a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences journal.

Tinnitus is a common hearing problem in industrialized countries and the ear-ringing can be loud enough to harm quality of life in between one and three percent of the general population, the researchers said.

If I played drums with my hearing aid in it would be likely to trigger my tinnitus.  Saw this article last week on BBC online I think.  Certain frequencies trigger my tinnitus which is why I've been known to punch people for whistling when they know not to.
