301 – How to sub like a pro

Subbing gigs can be a great way to establish relationships with players you don’t already know, get your foot in the door with new clubs and get you more gigs in the future. There are some dos and don’ts when it comes to subbing and some of them can effect whether or not you get called again.

Evans Drumheads UV1: Drummers can’t agree on much, but they do agree on UV1. With its patented UV-cured coating, it lasts longer and holds stronger than traditionally coated heads. UV1’s single-ply of unique 10mil film is more resistant to stretching and denting. These two features combined make it the first choice for drummers who’ve grown tired of heads that flake, chip, and wear out before their time. Learn more at EvansDrumheads.com
