Todd Sucherman's Method and Mechanics II

[SunCityCarl]

The new "instructional" DVD set by the Styx drummer!! I just had to tell you guys the first one is very good & I have already pre-ordered this one. Todd has mad chops is funny, engaging and is married to Taylor Mills!! Check it out, if your 6 or 106 this should be a great buy!!

It's funny, because people think, "Styx drummer?" Todd isn't the original. Only joined about 10 years ago. Big money gig for him. Before that he was the top guy on the Chicago sessions scene, which used to be flooded with commercial money. You've probably heard Todd drum 10,000 times while watching TV and you didn't even know it.

He's crazy good. Also a good guy.

OK so Todd has a Signature Stanbridge snare drum... A little to "nice" for my beer budget (LOL) http://www.empyreandrum.com/Empyrean/Welcome.html

Todd recently played the Biltmore Estate in NC. This was his view:

Great view, through some GREAT drums right there!

Well the DVD is freaking GREAT!! Though I was disappointed with no live shots of Mrs. Sucherman (Taylor Mills), not even in the end of the DVD. Todd just kills it drum wise & is incredibly funny & informative. If I was a critic I'd give it 3-1/2 somethings missing the 4 only because you used your wife's music all over the DVD and didn't show any moving pictures of her... Great job Todd...
