Wish list 2021...

[Hewitt2]

I want a Sabian AA 18" Thin Crash or an AA 18" Raw Bell Crash. I could probably also accept an AAX 18" Thin Crash. Peace and goodwill.

Great list - I have the 18” AA Thin and it’s part of my core cymbal collection. Its expressive and bright but has a quick sustain with no funky overtones. I use it for everything and it can stand on its own with only a ride and hi-hats if needed.

Very versatile and musical that you can find relatively cheaply, especially second-hand.

Gigs

My buddy's band has a new female lead singer. He says she's truly amazing. And he has literally never said that about any singer he's worked with.
They hope to be gigging by March or April. . . . . . . .Man, I really hope so.

Me too!

I thought about adding the Yamaha Crosstown Hi Hat to the 2021 wish list as my old Hi Hat is a pain in the you know where - but instead, I'll probably order it today.
Nothing else on the horizon except for the new Kiko Freitas book.

Interested in buying it used (but barely touched)? Just today I saw a listing in a FB group, the guy's based in Switzerland.

No thanks mate...I’d prefer brand new! My localish drum shop stocks them at an amazing price...target is February!!!

For the moment I have the following:

• Some fuel for driving the car to the lessons (and back)
• Cheap stand for the Moongel practice pad
• Second crash + boom stand
• Tama sizzle drop clutch
• Heads for experimenting with my new Tune Bot

All of that has been ordered already..
Actually, I decided to get the complete Crosstown set. Of course, I knew how light they are but it still made me grin when I lifted the bag out of the shipping box. Yeah, rotatable Hi Hat legs (don't really need those) and booms (I have 2 fitting arms already) would have been nice. And the wing nut of the Hi Hat seems a bit fragile but Yamaha has never let me down, so it's probably fine and I'm just looking for the fly in the ointment.

Mardi Gras disposition.

I could see that being a good thing on, say, Ladies Night.

I just really am debating/investigating a laptop to devote to recording. Don't know all about the specs I need, don't have a lot of spare cash, but already bought the Presonus Studio68 (Beginner recording), and some JBL powered monitors.

I ended up ordering two new, old-stock AAX Studio Crashes, 17" and 18". I used to play an 18" AAX Studio Crash at the church I used to go to. Plus, I ordered them from My Cymbal.com, so I got to hear them. I hope they arrive soon. Peace and goodwill.

I wish to get my hands on some Paiste 602's, ride, hats and crash. That would only be possible if I sell off my Zildjian K's and A's so that's where I have to start.
