Good pics, the kit looks nice out in the daylight. I can't view the videos right now, youtube is being a monkeys behind.

[Bob Smith]

Yeah they all look pretty good. And they sond pretty amazing too.
Just one thing, did your bass drum get a huge cut in it from the ride falling on it?

[maddrummr]

very cool! Same thing happend to me once at a gig...didn't tighten my crash stand...and it went straight up and down. I fixed it during a song while playing somewhat of a beat and some kids came up to me later and said i was a god. Me being my humble self..said no i'm not that great.

[bojangleman]

thanks for the replies guys!!!
means alot!!

and, fortunetly, my bass didnt get a gash of any kind in it from the ride falling....

it was near the end of the song, so it didnt mess me up..lol...people saw it and they said i recovered well, so i did good i guess...haha

we played 10 songs at the gig....i didnt put all of them up on youtube cause some of them were not worthy of going up....in other words, they werent that good..lol

another thing....we learned all those songs the day before....so we practiced a total of 8 hours on those..haha

Great new cymbals! The setup looks great outside with the band. Pretty nice playing, too. Looks like it was a lot of fun.

How do you like the Tour Custom.

I almost bought that exact kit a couple of days ago.

Looks like a great, fun, great sounding kit.

Sorry about your cymbal!

Hope it didn't mess up the finish on your set.
