    Do live sound engineers typically charge/receive more $$ on a holiday?

    I imagine there is more demand for sound people during holiday weekends. It makes sense to charge more. The gig should pay more too.

    New Drum Set Prices and MAP

    Cool drum rug replacer

    It sounds to me that if I replace or attach rubbery material to my bass drum legs then they should stay in place.
