  1. I played a it last weekend and out of 3 bands, two of us had a female drummer! Progress!!
  2. Thanks GBGB, I am dead chuffed ( Yorkshire for very happy!) that you thought we were OK. When we play live, we do cover a lot of Metallica,Maiden,Slayer and such like, but our own stuff is quite punky. I like in more intricate drumming like the covers, punky drumming is less challenging to play, but fun! SBD
  3. Small but Deadly comes from my love of metal and rock , and drumming from a very young age.
  4. Hi, SBD here, we finally got it together to record a few tracks, and we have them on soundcloud. I am 14 (just) and the guys are 18 and 19. If you have time would you have a listen? Can't do and Break are my faves.What? ..nothing is very old, I was 11 when I recorded that one, ignore that one! thanks SBD https://soundcloud.com/organized-khos-1
  5. @ Josellica,I do too, I have about 3 friend who are girls, and the rest are boys, but I don't have a BF ( urgh!) plenty of time for that stuff later!!Girls can be too superficial, with a bloke, what you see is usually what you get, a bit like my dog! (in a cool way) no fake stuff. I like that and I like to think I am like that. The only girl I really like is my sister, she is girly, but she is different, she has lots of tattoos. Oh and my mum, she is awesome too!
  6. Thanks Ghouly! played a few shows since I posted this, at one where we had about 250 watching, we went down really well! we had lots of people coming up after to talk to us and one actually said to my Mum, hey did you know your drummer kid is a girl? ( he was pretty drunk! ) My Mum yust laughed and said, yes. It was funny. \m/ SBD
  7. Thanks for your encouraging words! I know I am not as strong as a bloke, but I am strong for my age and being a girl. A lot of drumming is down to technique too. I would like to know you would stick around to watch if me ( or any other girl) got up to play. I once overheard someone say,' she's JUST a little kid, how can she play? 'just as I was climbing up onto the stage. I will always remember that. Not that it bothered me, I do it because I love it and it is part of what makes me ,me. \m/ SBD
  8. Oh yes! any nerves disappear as soon as I hit the first note.With me it is playing with my band mates, and being all miked up! it makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up!
  9. Off that set list?? aww! probably motorbreath/highway star.... out of all I can play... I love loads, but it would have to be something like Hot for Teacher, or an iron maiden song or Metallica. It depends on the mood, here is our band at a pub gig doing hot for teacher, it wasn't my kit though. SBD
  10. Hi, thanks for the feed back! 45 mins is average here, for a support slot, when we play a full gig we do 3 x 45 mins. We have decided we might pull Iron Maiden and Breed if things pan out funny, (we are a bit board of them) We do play fast too, so it goes quickly, for me anyway! SBD
  11. Hi, SBD here, we have a 'gig' on friday, supporting an older band, with the chance we may get booked to do a full gig. Here is the set list. We have 45/50 mins to grab them and we hope to with these. We haven't gone to heavy, because it is a pub gig and we have to allow for the fact they are not all going to be metal heads.All the songs are similar speed, no slow ones. I am looking forward to it, wish me luck! Highway Star Motorbreath Can't do s**t ( original) Breed F***ing Hostile Little Sister My AT/Tezza ( original) Bomber Land of the free ( Original) White Limo Hardcore Hypocryte (original) Iron Maiden With all due respect (original) Take on me ( not like you know it, honest!) I turned into a martian Too Drunk ( to funk) Blitzkrieg bop ( our style) to give you an idea here is LOTF, on soundcloud https://soundcloud.com/organized-khos BUT!! this is an old version, and I was 11 when we recorded it, go easy on me!! and the vocalist is much better now too! SBD
  12. thanks guys! and yes, sadly I am years off having a car! SBD
  13. Hi, there are a few girl drummers, but not that many, why do you think that is? I can't understand it, maybe because I am a drummer and a girl (13) I play all sorts of styles, but my band is punk/metal mix, and I absolutely love it! I think the argument that girls are less able because they are smaller, weaker is not valid, because how you play is not determined by how big you are.Because I am quite small really!! ALso, if you turn up to see a band and there is a girl drummer, do you expect her to be good? Just wondering? SBD
  14. Hi, I use OAK promark 5a's they are fine for me. Anything heavier slows me down a bit, and I don't like that. I try to use technique to be louder, rather than a heavy stick. Once had some thomas lang sis stix, that were like chair legs, I used to use them, then switch to 5a's, it made me SO FAST! SBD
  15. I like skateboarding,eating, my hair is quite long, and I am left handed.
  16. Hi, SBD here, I just joined this forum, and even though I have been to music festivals ( Leeds/Reading) I haven't got to a metal one... yet! My sister has done Download x 3 in the UK, and Hellfest, but wont take me ( she says she might lose me!) pah! what small/ festivals are 'safe' for people my age to start with? ( I would have an adult with me) thanks
  17. thanx guys, I am glad you thought it was OK. (I have an awesome tutor!) \m/
  18. That's what I'm talking about, I have discovered a new band! thanx. That drumming was awesome. SBD
  19. thanks, I will. this is me, it is actually an exam piece I am leaning. \m/ Bridie (SBD/Spooky) - Hit Like A Girl - 2014 Drumming Contest For Women SBD
  20. Erm, I just liked stuff my parents listened to, and when I was 6 I was given a drum kit by a friend of my Mum's he is a metal drummer, maybe there was something on the kit that rubbed off on me! My friend wouldn't sleep over when I was 10 because I had slipknot posters in my room, and she was scared of them! lol being in a band has broadened my music taste too. SBD
  21. Thanks! when I was 6 I liked AC/DC and Led Zep, I listen to more heavy stuff now, it is real fun to play as well. SBD
