cool thanks very much guys.

i watched the cameron video, man it has some gd stuff. esp the counter clockwise playing. really interesting.

i tried afew brushes when i was in brisbane, man there are so many varieties tht have slightly different feels and nuances to the sound.
honestly i really getting into the brush playing.

i tried plastic brushes which had a nice feel and sound for playing more pop brushes.

any recommendations on brush models
