Willy Rodriguez Recording with the Mars Volta, Snare Wires Shootout, Rogers Powertone Kit, Flam Accents, and Much More

In this episode, host Mike Dawson interviews NYC-based drummer/percussionist Willy Rodriguez about the making of the new Mars Volta album. He also compares some basic snare wire models to help you figure out which is best for your own needs. The education segment explores ways to practice flam accents so that they cross over the bar line. The Shop Talk segment focuses on some super-cool new Rogers Powertone drums at Hawthorne Drum Shop.
