The thing i find annoying about going into the GC near me is none of the drums are tuned properly. I once watched the guy set up a kit and he did a different number of turns on every lug (3 on the first 2 on the second 8 on the third 1 on the 4th and after that i stopped counting) thus getting no where near equal tension on the head and then had the gaul to yell at me when i tried to retune them so i could actually get an idea of the thing. It was a DW kit too and while i'm sure if properly tuned it would have sounded great it sounded worse than the beat up kits in the practice rooms of my old school. When i play on other drummers kits i've never had this problem, different tunings i've encountered but this was just incompetence. This also makes the shopping experience much harder.
