Dude, River Kicks is such a good name for a band!
The light-up sticks are a cool idea, especially for the dim area. There was a cool guy I used to follow on Twitch and he rigged up light-up tops for his drumkit and would essentially put a light show on while playing.
I love Raggle Taggle Gypsy, it's such a great song. You've got a good voice for it man, and to be able to sing while playing is kickass. I had a punk band when I was in my teens and I played bass and sang, which was handy because all the songs were 3 cords haha, but I found it so tough.
Fairplay mate, keep rocking, looking forward to hearing some of the gig recordings if any go up.

Cheers. I'm enjoying the drumming and tried to add a little showbiz to it. Those sticks are some sort of strong, clear plastic and have a real bounce to them. That is good on the Yamaha as the pads are a bit hard and unforgiving, but it felt different to wooden sticks. I am hoping there is some video so I can see how it looked.
I have done plenty of singing and playing guitar, so I have developed the ability to multitask. I generally keep the drumming simple for now, but I want to work on adding more fills and other details. There are a couple of songs where I experiment more, but I need to make it work for the rest of the band. Maybe they will let me have a solo some time :)

Too right man, a drum solo would be kickass. SteevStix
Ahh sure if you're not too comfortable with fills yet just stick to the straight forward rythm. But, if you have a couple of songs you can have some fun with and do fills on that's good, so at least you're building youself up.
Our old drummer would experiment a lot with fills during rehearsals, but then as we played live he'd hold back a lot and it was kind of annoying because we knew he was capable of it, and we'd go into the gigs ready to give it socks, but without the drums it made us have to tone back.
