The 11th Soft Drum Xchange Singapore
5th April (Saturday) 2008, 12-5pm at *scape
What is Drum Xchange?
The objective of Drum Xchange Singapore is to
- Promote exchange of drum knowledge, technique, gear talk
- Identify and nurture drum talent in Singapore
- Welcome all regardless of race, language, religion, gender, music genre and personal bias
The following things usually happen at an Xchange:
(1) Drummer Highlight/Showcase - We invite a local professional drummer/drum teacher and get him/her to share with us experiences, answer questions etc.
(2) Free Play - Everyone is welcome to sit on the drumset to play!
(3) Drum Battle - Here 2 drumsets are set up and drummers may play in tandem with each other, or "square off"
(4) Question & Answer - A more informal session where drummers can share and exchange info, tips on playing. Basically just hanging out.
(5) Gear Talk - Quite a number of drummers will bring their own gear. For the rest, a chance to try them and also get feedback on what you have been eyeballing.
(6) Cymbal/Drum Workshop - Here our resident cymbalsmith & custom drum expert - Fu Man (drum_hobbyist) will accept your request and modify your drum gear. Subject to very limited availability !! (Please ask nicely)
Theme for this meetup: Make It Your Xchange!
We got Drum Xchange going in the 1st year, and this year we would like to refine the programme and make it better.
We want you to make the Xchange yours! Please come if you've always had a question to ask, a gear to try/share, or u just want to whack the drums.
We are also holding a forum to garner feedback on making the Soft DXS programme more exciting in the year ahead.
