COMPLETE!!! Thanks to @damendrums and @ludwigdrumshq for finding this 70’s stainless Steel 22’ kick to complete the set up! My 2nd kit I ever owned at 17 was a 70’s stainless steel Ludwig set I bought used from Ludlow music in Woodland Hills back in the early 80’s. You can actually hear that kit being torn up at the end of Freedom on RATM’s debut record. 🤦🏻‍♂️🫣😎 07 Nov 2026 Happy belated Birthday to The General, the master of his craft, the great @davidgaribaldimusic !! Phenomenal player and phenomenal teacher.. I was so lucky to be a student of his for about a year back in 88’. His funk syncopation and permutation is on another level. Hope you had a good one!! 05 Nov 2026 Repost: @newyorkdrumstudio Thanks so much for the kind words!!! GET SET UP with BRAD WILK — 2006 AUDIOSLAVE ERA! 🥁 Some drummers can play a MILLION notes and leave you completely speechless. Brad Wilk can hit a bass drum and a snare drum and accomplish the EXACT SAME THING! 😂 Brad is a reminder that GROOVE, FEEL, and POWER can be every bit as impressive as technical complexity. Here’s his setup from 2006, during AUDIOSLAVE’s Revelations era, when he was playing GRETSCH USA Custom drums before eventually moving to LUDWIG. But what makes Brad’s playing so special has very little to do with the equipment. It’s WHERE he places the notes. Listen to his work with RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE. “Killing in the Name.” “Bulls on Parade.” “Sleep Now in the Fire.” Those grooves are practically part of the SONGWRITING! Brad doesn’t just keep time. His drum parts are so INTEGRAL to those songs that they wouldn’t feel the same without them. Then came AUDIOSLAVE, where Brad adapted that unmistakable rhythmic personality to Chris Cornell’s voice and a different songwriting approach. “Cochise.” “Show Me How to Live.” “Like a Stone.” And on 2006’s Revelations, you can really hear Brad leaning into his FUNK and SOUL influences. Listen to “Original Fire” or “One and the Same.” The ghost notes. The syncopation. The way he sits toward the BACK of the beat. I absolutely LOVE it! And his chemistry with bassist Tim Commerford? GOOD LORD! Those two have one of the most recognizable rhythm-section sounds in modern rock. To me, Brad Wilk is proof that great drumming isn’t about HOW MUCH you play. It’s about how much the MUSIC benefits from what you choose to play. Sometimes the most impressive thing a drummer can do is make a SIMPLE groove feel absolutely MASSIVE. And Brad has made an entire career out of doing EXACTLY THAT! 🥁🔥 What’s your FAVORITE Brad Wilk drum performance? #drums #drumsetup #rageagainstthemachine #audioslave #bradwilk 04 Nov 2026 RP: @revolvermag “Sleep now in the fire!”⁠ ⁠ ✊🏽 On November 2nd, 1999, Rage Against the Machine released ‘The Battle of Los Angeles’ — their last studio album of original material.⁠ ⁠ Fueled by Zack de la Rocha’s incendiary lyrics, Tom Morello’s boundary-pushing guitar work, and the rhythmic force of Tim Commerford and Brad Wilk, the album delivered an uncompromising blend of political resistance and sonic rebellion. From “Guerrilla Radio” to “Sleep Now in the Fire,” its sound remains as urgent and confrontational as ever. ⁠ ⁠ More than 25 years later, ‘The Battle of Los Angeles’ still hits like a revolution ready to explode. 02 Nov 2026 Thank you @troy_lmnl and @lmnlstudios for letting me throw some rust off in studio A. Gettin my Mental Hopscotch on. Sorry bout’ the iPhone mic… HAPPY HALLOWEEN 🎃☠️ Whatya gonna be? 31 Oct 2026 Heyo drum nerds!;) It’s very very surprising to me how much I can feel the difference between a few grams of weight on a drumstick and now I’m obsessed.;) Anyone else have the same experience? 🤓 30 Oct 2026 Early 70’s lets go… Let’s GO. #mustang #deeppurple #feelthegrease 29 Oct 2026 🦅 spreading out a bit with the kit. Also, who remembers when Neil Peart tipped his hat to Terry Bozzio and straight lifted this beat and put it in a song off of the signals record called chemistry? I remember being pleasantly surprised upon hearing that ... also maybe Terry lifted this beat from somewhere else that I’m not aware of? I wanted to give a huge shout out to @dwdrums for having my back for over 30 years!!! The BEST!!! Also want to give a shout out to @ludwigdrumshq for being amazing for the last 5 years and always coming through with the incredible tubs!! Also a huge shout out to @paistecymbals who I have been with for over 20 years!! Incredible cymbals and great family. While we’re at it, big thank you to @vaterdrumsticks and @remopercussion and @battle_drummer for the @choptagon !!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🤘🏼✊🏼 #drumporn #appreciationpost❤️ 27 Oct 2026 ABC… Always be Cording with @bradwilk and @paul__space Things brewing. X 24 Oct 2026 Repost: @revolvermag “Lights out! Guerrilla radio! Turn that shit up!”⁠ ⁠ ✊🏽 On October 12th, 1999, Rage Against the Machine released the single “Guerrilla Radio.”⁠ ⁠ The song remains as incendiary as ever. Unleashed as the lead single from ‘The Battle of Los Angeles,’ the track took aim at corporate power, political corruption, media manipulation, and money’s influence on American democracy. The band brought their signature confrontational spirit to their controversial 1999 appearance on ‘Late Show with David Letterman,’ punctuated by Zack de la Rocha’s middle finger flipped on network TV. ⁠ ⁠ 27 years later, “Guerrilla Radio” still feels politically relevant, musically fearless, and impossible to ignore — a reminder of why Rage Against the Machine became one of rock’s defining protest bands. 12 Oct 2026 RP: @chriscornellofficial Audioslave released their first single ‘Cochise’ on this day in 2002. Do you remember the first time you heard it? 25 Sep 2026 Did a thing at Chaplin studios with my friends from @lautenaudio and Darrell Thorp. You can check it out now on YouTube. 🙏🏼✊🏼✌🏼🤘🏼#drumswithbradwilk 01 Sep 2026
