That was a level of intense support needs that our team has really struggled to fill.

It’s always a danger to be playing in a foreign country, and then when you mix in an allegation like drugs going through an airport, that’s going to be very messy, and then when you add on top of it what’s going on between Russia and Ukraine, that’s a whole other element. It’s kind of a perfect storm here.

Drummers can have the effect of two bass drums by having a pedal which is double where you only have one and the mechanism will play as if it's a double bass drum. It's similar to that in a way, i think because the drummer's not directly controlling it from his brain - although it looks like might be able to do that in the future, which has its own complications - it would for me be an add-on to a kit so I could trigger a sample or a different instrument. The basic drum kit is great. Two hands are okay and when I'm producing and there's other drummers playing I get them to play with one hand because I think drums with one hand sounds better in many ways.
