Its athletics tape that you can get almost anywhere. He (and thousands of other drummers, including myself) use it for two reasons. 1. The most important and main reason, to prevent/lessen getting blisters. Blisters are painful enough, try playing a 2 hour set with them... every night! 2. Is to prevent slippage from sweating/playing fast or hard. By dropping a stick because of your sweaty palms can throw you off beat and screw up your song. If you ever notice he almost NEVER drops a stick.

Now go play with out tape as hard and fast as he and others do. Tell me how your night turns out... Point in case, invest in GOOD tape!
