[The Ploughman]

Hey, you are the drummerkid from the Pearl Forum........... still nice pics. Ya know.........I would like to meet your dad sometime. We arent that far apart.





My collection is in my signature......its a lot smaller.

[jollymosher]

Wow, i knew i pray to something! you magical snare collection!

[harryconway]

Very, very cool. Proof that you can never own "too many" snare drums.

[drumbandit]

that is immense!! how long has he been collecting them, and how much has it cost? Do you get to play them all ? seriously cool collection, if you set all the throw offs right, then if you hummed the whole house would buzz !!

Tom

[fijjibo]

Karl

[d.c.drummer]

Im stunned. How'd you get such a cool dad? The only thing my dad collects are grass clippings. Very nice collection.

[drflam]

That is insane! I was thinking that Todd Sucherman's collection was big.

[radeq]

unbelievable collection, wooooow

[chuzwazza]

wow!, dont let any drummers find out where you live, they will start disappearing

[SLEEPY BRiGHT EYEZ]

Hmmm... I wonder what the conversion rate is for those snares to shoes... as my wife would need an equal bounty.

[Stevesmithfan]

Snare dums anyone? snare drums! Very cool indeed. You could change your snare sound everyday for a long time!

[Mediocrefunkybeat]

Is that a Gibson ES-335 I spy in the background?

[hawk9290]

wow, thats more snares than my local 5 Star shop and local guitar center have put together, and those ones are all beautiful and great snares! thats not even fair, and all the other stuff you have, jeez! You may qualify as being the person born into the best family for drumming purposes- even above Jason Bonham and Zak Starkey

[gmrakich]

That one on the bottom row needs a new head.......SLACKER !!! : ^ P

[badlydubbedsean]

Well... your dad has good taste in snares. Lots. That's an incredible collection, very good collector then... hope he lets you pick one to play every now and then.

[dwlover]

Thanx guys for all the great complements...... My Dad has been collecting for over 40 years, he has alot more drums but their not in the pics..... Thanx again!

[Drumms]

Do you think that if you send me one or two snares your dad will notice?








I'll pay the postage.

[bonzo49]

Specs on all them snares? Kidden, how ever do you decide which one to play?

[Zildjian 242]

20 bucks you just took pics of some local shop

But if that is for real....my god

Think how crappy it would be to do a head change :(

[iamtak]

what? did have room for those other sets in the background? are those a yamaha and ludwig?

[superbatmat]

pppfffffff ! I'm want that !!!!! NNNOOOOOOWWWWWWWW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[maddrummr]

Thats not even funny.
All those snares.
Really dude, has your dad ever heard of SHARING!!!

You are lucky

[indiadrummer]

well definetly no shortage of drums at your house :D

[MadJazz]

What a waste. One can have a couple of options, but A WHOLE GARAGE of snares is insane. Are you sure he doesn't have a shop?

[gretsch223]

oh my...

20202020

[hauk]

That is quite a collection. Wow...
You are lucky.
Nice.

[dwlover]

My dad actully has 5 or six sets, the ones you can see are a ludwig and a rogers.

[Michael G]

Imagine the absolute CHAOS if every strainer on those snares was turned on, endless ringing!

[Ironcobra]

thats unbeliveable, did he buy all those or just come accross them all over his lifetime?

how can you remember how each one sounds?....but that really is something, ive never seen that many drums in one room

[dwlover]

Yea hes been collecting for over 30 years.

[YamahaDrummerAus]

I think your missing one......


lol. That is truly awesome. I love the all gold one!

[thumper]

If your dad is such a drumming afficianado, he should tell you that your roto tom setup is very awkward, and they would be easier to play mounted on the left side. (IMO)
No offense meant.

Isn't that really a matter of personal choice?

[ledzepjb]

[razorx]

[Freddie Freeloader]

Well, yes, that's why I said IMO (In My Opinion), and also that I meant no offense in his choice.

[CASP3Rdrummer]

[dwlover]

Tom


Some are worth more than others, yeah I can play them all if i want, and we turn the snares off so we don't hear em. Thanx for asking!

[tamadrummer132]

so... how about i come for dinner one of these days?

[cjl71178]

Hmmm...which snare will I use today?

Your dad has a beautiful collection.

[ECVail]

Most impressive. (20 characters)

[ECVail]

I had to snag a copy of the "overall" photo which shows all of the snares and email it my wife with the title "It could be worse...."

What a killer lineup.
