Thanks everyone for the advice and helpful suggestions. Was a 3 hour set with no breaks but made it through with a litre of lucozade and wine gums. Also adrenaline seemed to keep the engine ticking over.
Hi
Our toddler decided to keep me awake all night and I have gig later this evening. What do you do to get through a gig when youre feeling exhausted?
Any advice is much appreciated.
I have been reading some good reviews of this kit but haven't got the chance to try one out yet. Can anyone advise me about the weight of these drums? I read in the MD review (03/07) that the 16" floor tom weighs over 16lbs :-O. Are they of the hernia-inducing variety when lugging to gigs?
I booked tickets on a hunch to see Tommy Igoe and his big band at Birdland in New York, Just wondering if any anybody here has seen these guys in action?
I will be making a trip to New York next month. Can anyone recommend some drum shops to visit around Manhattan? Apologies if there is already a post on this, if so please let me know. Cheers

I takes me about 40 mins to set up a 4-piece with 3 cymbals (unmic'd).
How about you?
