* Safe Hearing *

Daddy Funk recommends that all drummers and percussionists wear ear protection plugs when playing live or rehearsing, and for drummers practicing at home drum silence pads are advised.
Fact: Playing an open snare drum in an enclosed space will start damaging your hearing after only 20 minutes!

“Deep peace of the open prairie and the wind swept sky, the flowing rivers,
the quiet valleys and the noble trees standing stalwart and true on the mountainside,
steady through all the boisterous winds of life” White Eagle.

to be victorious, every nerve and fibre in your being will immediately orient itself toward your success." Daisaku Ikeda.
