Who should we shoot first? the drummer, the vocalist or the harp player?

The front man, ie, the singer, has to take ultimate responsibility, so he should take the first bullet. ---------- Lucky Lester

Nah, the singer and harp player are fine. The drummer should be beaten to death, but by someone with no rhythm.

I think if you shot the vocalist the harp player would get it too because I think they were one person.

It sounds like it's all one person. We all have to start somewhere.

@kingo Thanks. I take that as praise indeed after your previous comments on my playing. @tooka/rbeets spot on.
It was all me; harp, vox and cajon The first time i have recorded my singing and I recognise that there are points where the singing is out of tune, and where the drumming looses it almost completely. As rbeets says, "we all have to start somewhere. I didn't put this on my soundcloud so that it isn't available to the wider audience, the stuff on my soundcloud is my better stuff [not to be confused with great music, it is MY better bits]
I wouldn't go as far as to call myself a one man band ;^)

Drums are a very hard part to add to the OMB. For me, there is the rhythm of the guitar, the rhythm of the harp, the rhythm of the singing, then you add the rhythm of the drums. Almost all are playing off of the main rhythm (not the same).
I tend to maintain my main rhythm on guitar with a lot of slapping and pounding while I play. I have not found a foot drum setup that I am comfortable with yet.
You'll get it eventually. I still can't play harp in a rack and drum with my hands. They are a little too connected in my brain, and I don't really see it in my future. I thought it might be a cool possibility in some set ups. You might want to try a pedal on that cajon. You might be able to separate them a little better (although it won't be as active at you were playing here -like drum rolls, etc...)
