New Drumming Invention by Benson Music

Kickstarter Link: www.kickstarter.com/projects/bensonmusic/stop-the-creep

Pro and semi-pro musicians play a variety of gigs from house parties and bars to medium size clubs. Most venues do not have a carpet for the drum set. To solve the problem of Bass Drum Creep drummers must always carry a carpet on which to set the bass drum. Drum rugs, which tried to solve this problem, are expensive and, like a carpet, a hassle to haul around. After dealing with this for many years, and having a tough time fitting a carpet and his drum kit in his tiny Honda Civic, Gary Benson invented The Strap. The Strap cures the problem of bass drum creep with one simple, non-invasive and compact solution. The Strap keeps the bass drum in place by securely attaching to the bass drum via the foot pedal clamp and hooking to center post of the drum throne. You become the anchor for your bass drum.

Gary say's "I can't count how many times I've showed up at a club or bar with cement or tile floors. With The Strap I never have to be concerned. I can play on any surface with no worries about bass drum creep. I have been using The Strap for over 2 years and have found it a necessity. Never again will my lead singer have to hold my bass drum with his foot."

At the heart of the patent is the steel plate design, adjustable length and universal fit which sets it apart from other attempts at similar solutions. The Strap easily and securely attaches to the bottom of any foot pedal thus ensuring it is never forgotten.

End-time Cultists to Fund Metal Record on Kickstarter

Despite overwhelming calls from world leaders to "please listen to reason", New York prog-metal guitarist Brett Miller and Argentinian fantasy concept artist Marcelo Orsi Blanco have launched "Oath Of Dagon" - a Kickstarter project that threatens to plunge mankind into a new dark age of horror and chaos.



Already being funded by Cthulhu cultists the world over, Miller's 5th record of instrumental metal guitar is wholly inspired by the weird fiction of H.P. Lovecraft. Says Miller: "We're combining a 10 song instrumental metal record with 10 Lovecraftian paintings. The result is the journal of an artist being driven mad by his dreams, bundled with a music download card that fits into the paintings like an occult key."



When asked by U.S. presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton "why they would do such a thing", Miller and Blanco responded "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn!", at which point Mrs. Clinton was lifted screaming into the air by invisible tentacles, and quickly disemboweled.
