didya know when you play fast 8th or 16th note with one hand going snare, tom,tom,tom (all three in desending order) then back to sanre repeatedly for about 5 minutes at a fast temp your arm starts really hurting?

This morning in church my left leg started shaking for some reason. I usualy don't play alot on the hi-hat... and I wasn't nervous. It was weird.

Did it fall off?

its reallly bad if your left leg falls off. Thats when you know something is wrong.
