Radeq, there is something about that SONOR head that makes it the only one I can think of that looks good vertically or horizontally.

lwk · #12 09-18-2008, 03:45 AM

old kit

new kit (catalina maple)

Good gig pics of drummers are almost impossible.

stasz · #13 09-18-2008, 03:54 AM

Basscase you have a Beatles tribute band?? That is too cool! Any footage of you guys playing? I'd love to see your best ringo impersonation : )

#14 09-18-2008, 04:00 AM

Oh, why not? Studio gig photos okay?

wolfgang · #15 09-18-2008, 04:23 AM

The first three pics are from my school's Battle of the Bands, my band's first gig. That's not my kit! Haha, and only like 3 of the cymbals are mine lol.

The next one is the only decent pic of me drumming at my band's last gig. Harder to get a good angle because the stage is so much smaller than my school's lol.

Nodiggie · #16 09-18-2008, 05:10 AM

This show was pretty crazy. The world famous Whisky a Go Go.

drummerstix_au · #17 09-18-2008, 05:22 AM

Ok thought I'd throw in my 2 cents worth.... first 2 were taken at the Sydney Opera House in December 2005.

3rd shot was taken at an outdoor street festival here in Sydney in December 2006... that day was windy, cold and my set was in between the rain.

Cheers,

Andy

No, not my band. I just wanted a picture with the kit. I do run a performing arts theatre so I do get to play on a lot of different kits......

Drumsword · #20 09-18-2008, 01:09 PM

I just have a close up of me playing, I can't find the hundreds of gig photo's. My ex probably has them. lol.

asht89 · #21 09-18-2008, 02:15 PM

An early pic of one of my first bands, playing at the Varsity in Wolverhampton (England)
-----

Another early one with our soul band playing at the Robin 2 RnB club in Bilston (England)
-----

These last 3 are from my last assessment at university which was a lot of fun:
-----

Ingore the wacky shirt by the way, everyone in the band turned up like that for a laugh haha.

hateplow · #22 09-18-2008, 04:43 PM

Here's one of my band's gigs a a local bar. I'm playing on some dude's 7-piece Pearl Export ELX. Sounded like wet cardboard. They had all new heads, too.

mrchattr · #23 09-18-2008, 07:15 PM

Here's one of me at a recent gig, actually during the soundcheck. It's a campy pose, but I like the pic, regardless. I also love how my turquoise satin finish makes my drums look like they are in motion or filled with water or something.

rritter · #24 09-19-2008, 01:53 AM

My Sonor 3007 6 piece kit and the "Just 4 Fun" Band playing classic rock and country.

Well not exactly gigging pics, but the closest our band has to them.

Recording drums for the album last Thursday:

drummerern · #26 09-22-2008, 06:57 AM

from a camp i just got done playing....

SergeKIEFFER · #27 09-22-2008, 11:01 AM

Hi all,

here's my part with some Gretsch V.C. set ....

keep it loud
Serge

cantstandyourfunk · #28 09-22-2008, 02:44 PM

Here's some o'mine...

cantstandyourfunk · #29 09-22-2008, 02:50 PM

...And some more from a gig in May, with an ancient ludwig set...

Cymbalrider · #30 09-22-2008, 10:16 PM

this is the only picture with everyone in it

playing my Gretsch Catalina Club Rock green sparkle kit (26,13,16...the 18" was at home although sometimes it made an appearance as a kick too) with my jazz combo here. This kit is a lot of fun to play and it's easy to set-up. My other kit is a Mapex ProM kit with suspended toms which takes forever to get everything right and it takes up twice the room because you have to get the stand for the 'floor toms' going. I like to use this Catalina though as I get the old jazz sound quite easily from those big drums instead of the toy drum type of sound from the be-bop era. The snare is a Slingerland chrome over brass I suspect to be thirty years old or more (originally was the Gene Krupa model).

Class A Drummer · #31 09-22-2008, 10:50 PM

Old one from a little under a year ago at my band concert.

MykeyInChains · #32 09-22-2008, 11:04 PM

Hey cantstandyourfunk: nice Maiden shirt!

Ironcobra · #38 09-23-2008, 03:06 PM

Any similarities? You two have almost identical poses, lol. Actually, I'm sure many people can find pictures of themselves in this same position.

Yeah, actually... :

And one that justifies my nickname - I'm in the back, you can't miss me.
