I'm a drummer of 20 years, All I've ever really played was loud heavy rock music.
Basically, I've been bashing away for 20 years but have always had very open
tastes in music with jazz, folk, country, blues etc.
NOW, I'm entering the world of folk and cover gigs - I need to tone it down and really
work on my dynamics even more than before for low volume situations. Not every gig
needs me to play on 10.
Is it unheard of to play lighter sticks in these situations? I know you really should use
the right stick for your hand but I'm curious if some drummers do.
