Welcome back to Drummers on Drumming ... a podcast powered by Big Fat Snare Drum
This week’s Drum Panel has me joined by Mark Stepro and Kris Mazzarisi for a wide-ranging conversation about what happens when gigs fall through, routines get shaken, and you’re forced to rethink how you want to work and live as a drummer.
In this episode, we talk about:
- How to respond when a major gig disappears
- Why direct, personal outreach still beats mass posts
- Aging, touring, and shifting priorities
- Social media’s role vs real relationships
- Practicing vs working, and why confusing them stalls growth
- Tracking progress without over-measuring
- Onstage anxiety, depersonalization, and mental spirals
- Balancing family, business, touring, and sanity
- Letting go of shame around how your brain works
- Building a career that isn’t dependent on constant touring
