“Wow! What a great resource for the beginning musician or for refreshers for experienced musicians.

I have been a band leader and drummer for 40 years and I still found many nuggets of wisdom going through this course.

The material is comprehensive and well organized so you can go directly to the subjects that you are most interested in and Tim is an incredible resource for anything to do with drumming and performing.”

- Pete S.

“I am full-time musician and what I was hoping to gain from this course were ways to be more efficient with my time, a more productive workflow, and insight into how to diversify my income stream as a working music musician.

After this course I’m more efficient with learning songs for gigs. I had never owned an SPD-SX before this course (or even used a sample pad before) but these lessons REALLY helped me get to know my way around the SPD-SX so I was confident in using it in shows right away.

The included chart templates, finance tracking templates, click and tracks, and SPD-SX files are all so useful and incredibly valuable for any working drummer.

This course covered essential topics and skills for a working drummer that I didn’t find in music school or drum lessons.”

- Mike W.

“I usually don’t spend money on “courses” as they are usually overpriced and unhelpful, but your Live Gigging course was full of stuff I didn’t know – especially the stuff about electronics. Learning about taxes and finances was also super helpful. I’m working on the networking and getting gigs and after this course things have been picking up. “
