You have some real patience. After the second time, I would have gone full a****** BEAST mode. We both would have been playing the part with a metronome so that he would be shamed into submission. In...

http://www.drumchat.com/album.php?albumid=900&pictureid=9928I have the Armory 6pc. as well, and yes it comes with 2 tom mounts.
When I was younger, I used the steel snare that my mom bought for me for school band for my first kit. I don't even remember what brand it was. But I knew it well, and how to tune it to get the best...
When I first started drumming again, I bought the Sabian XS20 Medium Brilliant cymbal pack without hearing them. I still use the hats, 10" splash, and the 16" medium thin crash. They still sound...
I'm not afraid of fills. I'm just saying that I seem to reach a level of complexity that defies me. And I have never been able to piece together a solo that sounds musical instead of just hitting...
Thanks everyone. That's why I like this place so much. So much good, friendly advice. jgziegler, I have watched a couple Gavin Harrison videos where he shows how to use triplets and parradiddles in...
I've come to realize that I just don't have the imagination to do drum solos or complex fills. I don't hear them in my head, or feel them. And when I try, it doesn't sound right to me. I like simple...
I added a 14" Crush Chameleon birch FT on to my Ludwig Element kit. I didn't have very good luck getting the sound I wanted out of it. I was constantly re-tuning it to try and get it to sound good....
Rammstein or Iron Maiden. It would be a coin toss.
Call me OCD, but I have a BIG problem with finger and hand prints on my stuff. Every time someone tries to help, the first thing that happens is dirty hands clawing all over my stuff. NO!! Others...
http://www.drumchat.com/album.php?albumid=900&pictureid=9736I can't speak for others, but I absolutely love my Armory kit. I still can't believe that I got such a great looking, great sounding kit...
Thanks guys, I think I'll just stick with the R2 coated. I really like them, and I already have them mounted, so it won't mean a head swap.
OK. I'm using Aquarian coated Response 2's on my toms right now, but I have a question for you other Aquarian guys. I've thought about trying clear Response 2's on my toms, but the last clear heads...
Slingerlander, try the Aquarian Focus-X. It has another ring on the bottom side with holes around it. I use one on my snare, and it helps to get rid of bad overtones at all tuning ranges without...
Well the decision was already made. We are looking for a place, packing, and I'm working on another job already. I won't make as much money right away, but I also won't be driving all day, which I'm...
Well, after moving here in 2008, getting married again, buying first home, etc., we are now getting ready to move. My wife got a really good job, but it will require us to move to Cheyenne. Our band...
I did a lot of research to find the exact ride I was looking for before I bought my Stadium Ride. I knew exactly what I wanted, so when I heard the Stadium, I knew it was the one, and I have not been...
Vic Firth American Classic 5BN. Tried the wood tips, but they kept breaking the tips along the grain. I've never had one single problem with the nylons.
Lip down here. I would rather strike a larger radius, than the thin edge. I don't hit hard usually anyway, but why chance damaging a good cymbal. My 15" AAX Xtreme china is fairly loud, so a hard...
Leonard Haze : Not a flashy style, but a solid drummer. I guess I'm biased, as I'm a HUGE Y&T fan.
Jimmy D"Anda : The BulletBoys were one of the more unique bands in the 90's. I liked them, and the...
As you can see, it's all up to personal preference. Find the position you like for the sound you want, and roll with it. Drums are like anything else. Clear or coated heads, single or two ply. Bright...
WOW Spaz, the bell on that thing is HUGE! The bell on my Stadium ride is loud, I'll bet that thing could shatter windows.
Welcome to the site BigFlips. I recently switched to Mapex as well. I bought the 6pc. Armory as well, only in transparent walnut. How do you like them so far? Are you still using the stock heads?
When I got back in to drumming I bought the XS20 pack. I still use the medium hats, the 10" splash, and the 16" medium thin crash. I still have the rest, but I don't use them, as I've replaced them...
