Shannon Leto of 30 Seconds to Mars on drumhead selection 2009


Shannon Christopher Leto (born 9 March 1970) is an American drummer and an occasional actor. Shannon Leto was born in Bossier City, Louisiana. He's been playing drums since he was eight years old, and he plays for the band 30 Seconds to Mars, and is the older brother of the band's singer, Jared Leto. Some of Shannon's favorite drummers include John Bonham, Stewart Copeland, Keith Moon, Nick Mason, and Lars Ulrich, all of whom he notes as influencing his own playing style.

With the band, he practices six to seven hours a day. In an interview with Modern Drummer magazine in February 2006, he stated: "Rehearsing that much has helped to build up my stamina and make my playing more precise". He has also said that he doesn't like playing to tape or to a loop, and prefers the more organic way of doing things, experimenting with electronics the band creates on their own.1

Bob Ezrin, who helped produce 30 Seconds to Mars' 2002 debut album, 30 Seconds to Mars, called Leto "one of the most inventive drummers I've worked with. He isn't satisfied with simply adding a beat; his drum parts are an integral part of the orchestration of the record. He's also a great live drummer who is lots of fun to watch, with a presence and energy level that are mesmerizing". (Modern Drummer Vol. 30, no 2)

Leto describes his band's music as having the grandiosity of Pink Floyd and the energy of The Sex Pistols.[citation needed] His other musical influences include The Cure, the first two albums from Metallica, Led Zeppelin, The Who, early The Police, and Steely Dan. He appeared on a few episodes of My So-Called Life with his brother Jared before forming 30 Seconds to Mars in 1998 with the addition of bass player Matt Wachter and later by joined by friend Tomo Miličević on guitar.

Leto is also a guitar and piano player. His interest in always learning more about the art of music, he has said, has made him want to continuously take risks and challenge himself.
He also expresses interest in writing, Abstract art, progressive rock, self-interpretation, and is a professional photographer.
For his drums he uses Sabian Cymbals, Vic-Firth 5an drum sticks, Remo Pinstripe heads, Sonor Drums, And Tama hardware.

Special 'TEEN WOLF' - Season 3 Spoiler ♥

‘Teen Wolf’ season 3 spoiler: Lydia will be explaining Jackson’s absence
January 25, 2013


Fans have (grudgingly) accepted the fact that Jackson (Colton Haynes) will not be featured in season 3 of Teen Wolf, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have tons of questions! Here’s a snippet about how his departure will be addressed.
In a spoiler chat with EOnline, it was revealed that a Jackson-less Beacon Hills won’t be a shock to its residents because of that handy four month time jump that will occur between the end of season 2 and the beginning of season 3. Other than Lydia, we doubt too many people will be missing Jackson, especially after everything he did last year.
Speaking of Lydia, apparently she will be the one to explain Jackson’s absence this season. E! says, “we’ll learn what happened to him thanks to a quippy explanation from Lydia,” and we can already see her now – pursed lips, a little flip of the hair, and that ever-present Lydia Martin sass. She’ll probably be playing it off while she’s around Allison and the others, but after what happened in season 2′s finale, we know that Jackson’s leaving is going to be painful for her.
Unfortunately, we’ve still got no news as to why Jackson would be leaving. Considering that the Alpha Pack is going to be the main antagonist for this season, we doubt that Jackson would’ve been kidnapped or had just gone missing mysteriously. Otherwise, our heroes would probably be mounting an all out search for the newly converted werewolf. More than likely Jackson packed up and left voluntarily, maybe to get away from the Beacon Hills for a while after all he did to its inhabitants while under Matt’s control. And we can’t blame him for that.
Why do you think Jackson won’t be in Beacon Hills during season 3? Do you think this will severely effect Lydia, or do you think she’ll move on fairly quickly?

Meet the new faces of ‘Teen Wolf’



New characters seem to be coming into season 3 left and right, amidst departures of some old cast members. Both Colton Haynes (Jackson) and Gage Golightly (Erica) will not be returning for another season.
However, a whole slew of new characters and new cast members have been added to the roster. The major casting announcement came back in November, when it was announced that Max and Charlie Carver would be playing Ethan and Aiden, the Alpha Pack twins; Adelaide Kane would be playing Cora, a mysterious woman; Felisha Terrell would be playing Kali, the female member of the Alpha Pack; and Gideon Emery would be playing Deucalion, the Alpha Pack’s leader.
Characters Ennis and Heather have not been announced yet, though some believe that Caitlin Custer could be portraying Stiles’ childhood friend. Hayley Webb will also have a recurring role, portraying someone’s love interest – possibly Derek’s. We also know that Meagan Tandy has been on set, although her role remains mysterious as well. (Check her out wielding a weapon in the locker room in this video.)
Lastly, Zelda Williams, daughter of Robin Williams, has also joined the cast in an unknown role.
