Does Mike practice? How does Mike practice?
MP: I don’t get to practice as much as I should, and not nearly as much as I used to on the drums. But for me, so much of drumming is actually a mental thing. A lot of drummers spend a lot of time developing the physical side of their drumming, but they disregard the mental side. I get just as much out of sitting at the dinner table or sitting on a toy box and tapping, playing along with my hands and feet as I do sitting behind the kit. Luckily, a drummer’s instrument is always attached – two hands and two feet. We don’t need a guitar or a piano in order to practice.
