How are ya YouTube! It's been a while since I've posted on here so I wanted to talk about what I've been up to, why I started posting on YouTube to begin with, the opportunities it has given me, the reason(s) why I took some time away AND what I'd like to do looking ahead!
I also took this opportunity to include a Q&A from my posts on Instagram and Facebook last month:
Thank you so much for your patience. I'm looking forward to sharing some new videos in the coming weeks!!

QUESTIONS:
What is your reasoning for choosing Pearl as the kit you play?
Which stack is that?
What sticks do you use mate?
