Re: Thoughts and ID on CraigsList Snare etc.
I've said this before and I'll say it again. Bags and cases my friend, bags and cases.

Re: Did Gretsch Change the Renown's Shells?

Re: The thread derail thread
I might play this one a little differently and not try to make light hearted banter out of your bone idle laziness though. You just never know how some guys re gonna react. :-)

Re: Why I don't play V-Drums
How about I rephrase and use Sir Les Patterson's old favourite....the chocolate starfish? (and I ain't talkin' about the 90's band) :-)

Re: Why I don't play V-Drums
Yep, Pretty much the reason I haven't entered this discussion. The argument was skewed, unbalanced and out of context from the outset as a result.
You'd think Elle Macpherson was ugly too if all I...

Re: drum workouts....
Remember that they're playing their drums regularly for long periods.....that speaks volumes doesn't it? Sure some of them may well work out, but that is secondary to the task at hand.....for all...

Re: Anybody have that 'magic touch'?
I usually chew mine up and chip the tips away long before they break as well. But sometimes, on occasion, they just break........and technique has little to do with it. It's little more than the...

Re: help me ID my kit
For sure.
Be sure to include pics of things like lugs (it may help to list how many are on each drum) and clear pics of the finish (as in not grainy thumbnails taken with a phone camera) if...

Re: Thoughts and ID on CraigsList Snare etc.
Agree with Steve, definitely a hammered bronze 6.5 shell. They are the bomb.....love mine.
Also agree with the chorus.......worth it for the snare and whatever odds and ends you want to keep....

Re: Jazz&Funk: Your Snare Pick
Ok. Your call. But I still think your approach is fraught with danger. I mean, what happens if you end up buying a snare that is partial to playing some country and western? Country and bloody...

Re: The thread derail thread
A cape helps. All good nemeses (or is that nemesisis??) need a cape.

Re: Jazz&Funk: Your Snare Pick

Re: Ludwig Black Beauty
Your call. But if you're struggling to decide between two snares, how are you gonna go when you start getting 400 different options? Something to think about.
