Here is another repost some of the breakdown videos of my drum parts that I had posted a few years ago, since I am now offering drum lessons through Skype. This is really more of an up close, drums-only version of “Attractive Today” than a “lesson”. If you’re interested in actual lessons, please contact me at thaxtonlessons@gmail.com.

I thought I would repost some of the breakdown videos of my drum parts that I had posted a few years ago, since I am now offering drum lessons through Skype. Here is a breakdown of the outtro section of “Time Turned Fragile”. This is really more of a up close, slowed down version of the drum part than a “lesson”. If you’re interested in actual lessons, please contact me at thaxtonlessons@gmail.com.

So we have a new theme song for Matty Has A Podcast written by Tony Thaxton (formerly of Motion City Soundtrack).

Thanks Tony!!!

I “wrote” a “theme song” for this podcast. Check it out, then make fun of me and it!

Tonight I appeared in my long awaited onscreen collaboration with Dennis Quaid. In my beer chugging, I managed to (mostly) block out @cajohns & @kt_money. (at Jimmy Kimmel Live!)

It’s true.

Now that I’ve given up touring, is it time to give my dream another shot?

Huge thanks to @KrisRochaaa for sending me this photo. Another shot of my last moment onstage with MCS. I’m glad to have one from this point of view.

TheBlogOfPhrasure: Tony Thaxton's Best Drum Moments:

theblogofphrasure:

With the news that Tony Thaxton is moving on from his life with Motion City Soundtrack, I’ve listened to the entire discography of the band from their first single to their Making Moves release. That being said, I particularly paid attention to Thaxton’s unique drumming. I created a list of the…

This is a lot of fun for me to read. I’m flattered to read such things, so thank you, Jakob Frazier! It’s just a shame that, if I can be 100% totally honest, you picked my absolute least favorite MCS song in my history with the band as #1. It’s okay, I’m still flattered one would even take the time to make a list! I’ll forgive you. Thanks!

This is a map of every city I got to play with @motioncitysoundtrack. 11 years, 19 countries. I can’t complain. The A marks my final show, Manila. (But really I couldn’t figure out how to not make it an A) (at Planet Earth)

This is the last song of my last performance I did with MCS. Recorded live in Manila. Thanks @jasontrabue for the footage. We all knew before the show that this was the end for me, and I couldn’t have asked for a better ending.
