So is it possible to have your kit in green sparkle without someone accusing you of being a John Bonham fanboy?
I'm considering a re-cover of my kit, but after looking at different sparkles, I think there was a reason Mr. Bonham had green sparkle - it looks good! For some reason, it doesn't look too cool (like blue), nor does it look too hot (like red sparkle). Silver, gold, and champagne sparkle, to me, look like they don't know what they want to be, so they're not on my list at all. But I was thinking red because I've always been a fan - and I was attempting to avoid comparisons to the great one.
But now that I think of it, how many people actually care? How many people would even know? Zeppelin is a big group, but it's not like having the ubiquitous black oyster pearl of that other guy. Personally, I think everyone remembers Zeppelin for maple and amber vistalite.
So now taking into account everybody's opinions on re-covering my drums at all, to now trying to decide covering them in which sparkle - I must do some sleeping on this. You guys have sent me into overload.
