That's what Kenny told me when I talked with him. He used it almost exclusively on the Scarecrow album also.

Lots of good, common sense advice here. Thanks for posting. I think I'd get along fine with that bass player.

I always have spare heads in every size, some of which remain in the car for emergencies. I have bought slightly used heads to keep as spares for a few bucks. You never know when you might need one.

I've yet to hear any of these that really sound like authentic clapping. I think it would be useful for a song or two, but not at the prices I've been seeing. I could likely create something like this out of cymbals I already own.

Good purchase. Going 100% Sabian was the best cymbal move I've ever made.

Gretsch drums look good in red sparkle. Nice groove.

I've heard about New Haven pizza. I'm tempted to make a trip up there just to try some out.

It's not cal It's not Steve Maxwell anymore. Don't know the name, but I'm sure it's online.

Don't forget to sample NYC pizza while you're there.

That's likely what it is. Notice the name of the high school scratched on the underside of the bell. I'm sure this cymbal saw many football games or spring concerts.

I recently bought a Roc 'N Soc bicycle seat for my DW throne base, and it's made a big difference. No more pain in my ass!

There are always decent quality used drumsets for sale. If you check Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist, you'll find many choices. Same with used cymbals. I'm echoing what others have said, but do yourself a favor and buy professional quality cymbals: Sabian, Zildjian, Paiste, Meinl and other...

If it's your first drumset, get REAL drums and cymbals, and not those electric pads.

I believe that's the OP in the video, not Dave.

I'll be curious to see how these drums turn out after restoration. They're pretty skanky looking as they are.

I agree with Bo. Shut the damn thread down. It's been discussed to death. Threads like this are so divisive. There are lot of great drums out there, and It's all personal preference. Get over it.

As far as I know, these are all correct. I've always said Eye-Oat. That's the way Ray Ayotte pronounced it when I met him at NAMM. And no, it's not So-Nar. That drives me crazy. Even David Raouf said Sonar in a video he made. The German pronunciation of Ludwig is Lood-vig. The name was...

I can tell after a few songs when everything settles in and the band is happening. That's when I know the night is going to go well, and I can relax and enjoy it.

We've all done stuff like this. I discovered that you could use your car's floor mats if you leave the rug at home. On other occasions, I've been able to beg, borrow or steal what I needed. I always have extra mics in my bag, extra sticks in the car, and more. I too have made a checklist.
