Me too, right? Like, I just can't believe how skilled (yet humble) he is. Is he for real? If I purchase those sticks do I really have a chance of being able to play like that one day?!?! |

Have you checked out the website? He's either madder than a bag of frogs or a genius in marketing to the 1000's of people who buy into this stuff. Would probably do a good job selling Double Glazing or Jet Washers. Mental!

That kind of marketing is massive in the US; People like Anthony Sullivan and the late Billy Mays became household names and made millions.
Considering there are TV channels over there dedicated to selling virtually anything with nothing but an OTT marketing style, (Compared to what we see in the UK) it must work.

Oh it works but for a specialised area like drum sticks? Can't see many bored 30 something coach potatoes ordering a pair as you get 50% off and because we want you to be happy, another 50 pairs absolutely FREE!
I'm half tempted to order a pair to see..... oh.... hang on....

| This is typical over excited selling that is pure "Americanism" there are even dedicated Church TV stations that churn out patronising crap, tears to order and they make millions out of gullible Mid/Southern Americans who send them their "i'll go to heaven now" dollers,, |

Most of us have a bad name already, and revel in it.

"Rocket Sticks are also proving to be successful in the treatment of depression and anxiety. The cyclical and rotational movements create a dopaminergic reaction with both mental and cardiovascular benefits. Everyone begins to feel a little better after enjoying a short session of drumming. Creativity will always be a motivator to overcome anxiety and distress."
Wow, he's certainly covering all the angles... |
