I was in Birmingham on Saturday for something totally un drum related and on the way back to the train station I saw a fairly big music shop (Fair Deal if you know Brum) and thought I'll grab a snare head for the New Years gig, to my amazement they had no coated heads 13" of 14".
I'm no salesman but if you had a music shop that sold drums you'd stock lots of heads and lots of sticks, the little shop I used to go to years ago made a killing from heads and sticks, Saturdays were a conveyer belt of drummers. It's like a guitar shop not having strings.
The crazy thing is this isn't the first time it's happened to me, you see expensive kits that nobody can afford but things that a gigging musician needs aren't there and it's not worth ordering online. Anyone else have this problem?
