Do you ever just get sick and tired of taiko? Or of anything for that matter? You do it because you think you love it, and you've devoted a big part of your life to it. But at some point, it can just become too much. You don't enjoy it the same way you once did. You feel obligated to stick with it, but there's a part of you that just wants to walk away. This is a burnout, and we'll be talking about it in this episode of the TaikoSkin Podcast.audioPlayer( "EP17BRN", "http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10907961/TaikoSkinPodcast/Burnout.mp3", "Taiko Burnout") Tip of the MonthThrow away your bachi sticks! Sticks get old after a while, and though they can be fixed up, often times it's just better to get knew ones. Why? When they're damaged, they can hurt your drums.

So you're starting a new taiko group- where do you get your drums? Where do you practice? Where do you find a teacher? And if there aren't any teachers, where can you learn? We offer some tips and resources for anyone considering starting a taiko group, or trying to establish some fresh direction for their new team.audioPlayer( "EP16STG", "http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10907961/TaikoSkinPodcast/Starting%20A%20Taiko%20Group%202.mp3", "Starting a Taiko Group 2") Tip of the MonthLearn some basic music theory. As Isaku explains, it can change the way you hear, perceive and play music, even for taiko players.
