All that I ever really need is a 4 piece kit with one crash, one ride, a splash, and hats.
The rest is just extra junk that I carry around!

larry, You're A... A... A... GEARHEAD!Since a 2nd extra rack tom doesn't increase my foot print, I use it. But I only really need a 10 and 16 tom. I could easily go down to four drums but I still like 3 crashes and a ride, plus a splash, and 2 cowbells and a tambourine and if I have the room and the time, chimes and a vibraslap.
Too many toms is a distraction to me.

Is there some kind of medication I can take so that I never have this syndrome.
I think your right.I believe they are called roadies ...
I think your right.
I've been just fine with a 4pc and three cymbals for quite a while now...but lately I've been getting some cravings...of the cowbell, 6"splash and side snare variety.
again i state i didn't start this to argue which is better, just to hear peoples thoughts about going from a large kit to a smaller one.
I personally like them both, but i find i play better on a 4 piece is all.
This type of topic is always inviting a "certain" type of discussion. Maybe in a few years when you gain more experience, you too will like the feel of a larger kit a bit more.

I feel free while playing, enough space for movement and flexibility around the kit and good placement to play my lovely 24" ride...
