To the dude requesting pictures of my Mapex:
Damn it, I was trying to up some pix, but when I try to edit the photo of my mapex m's (to shrink it so I can attach), it gives me an error report. I...

Don't know, but I just found the word "tama" in a Vietnamese dictionary, and guess what it means? "Doinker that works in a rice paddie!"
Ok, just kidding. But seriously, it means, "Dark spirit."...

Mapex M includes nice hardware if you need that too. Other sets don't necessarily have that. My M set smokes, and even includes a sweet 8" tom (making it a 6-piece kit). I love mine, and the...

Are you the one writing the songs? Could you not do a bunch of covers and then see what the band thinks of your songs?

Ok, let's think about this, guys: We're giving advice to a kid about how to escape his punishment. Anyone here think maybe that's a bit inappropriate?

Sorry, man, but getting in trouble is not...

Ok, one more funny story from my band in college. We never did come up with a good band name. Screwing around, Chris, our guitar player, said we were called the Four Skins. (Look at it again, and...

Holy crap, Timer, what a story! I guess no one ever replied 'cos this thread is lost back on page 11! Unfortunate, 'cos this story rocks!
Now me, personally, I LMAO when I read the reply from...

I keep mine in my front yard so hopefully a really good guitar and bass player will drive by and join in as I jam. So far, no takers, but several calls to the police...Damn neighbors!...

How about this for a variation on the 4/4 beat you're playing. First of all, can you keep time with your left foot as you play on the ride? If not, that's one thing you can work on: "Chicking" on...

You're very welcome, Demonslayer! As you could probably tell, I get pretty excited talking about my new kit.
You're pretty close to me: Murphy is probably only an hour to 90 minutes from Dalton,...

The dude was obviously a liar, but the funniest thing: A liar that KNEW he would be found out! That's just idiotic! At least make a lie about something no one will ever catch you on! LOL Moron...

I got my Mapex M 6-piece honey amber kit for 699 US dollars, all hardware (and good, sturdy stuff) included, and even free shipping. I love it! The floor tom just sends a boom through my...

It's 3 in the morning, but who can sleep after the jam session I just had?

I got my Mapex M 6-piece a couple of months ago, and I LOVE IT! Everytime I walk through the door from work, I have to...

Here's how I've gotten comfortable: 14" crash above the hi-hats, 16" crash between the floor tom and the tom to the sitting above my right knee. Here's where I'm not sure if I'm like everyone else:...

Thanks for all the great info. How come they (the Mapex manufacturer, to be specific) recommend that you tune the r-head slightly higher than the b-head? 'Cos many of you are saying that it's...

Could y'all advise me? Just got my Mapex-M set, I tuned them up, but not sure if they sound as they should. Any audio files available to correctly tune them? I'd appreciate the help!...

There it is, just arrived today, and I'm happy as Keith...

Damn, no one answered. That sucks. (Must be busy doing something completely useless with their time...like playing drums or something. LOL!)
I have Meinl MCS and I like them fine. The only...

This is just something another drummer told me about the Zildjian Titaniums, I can't state this from experience: The Titaniums are so loud, you'll end up drowning out the rest of the band. Might...

Mapex M is what I want. Maple shells, 6 pieces, all the hardware, 769. Not too bad for that, methinks.

Or Linda McCartney...

Gretsch makes great drums, and as a matter of fact, there's a sale right now for the Catalina Club set. You get a free tom (10" I think) with tom holder in addition to the other, standard 5 pieces. ...

Here's another hand for using a kitchen stool! Well, that was before I moved it up a notch and stole the little stool (say that 5 times fast: "stole the stool") from my pet parakeet. And yes,...

Back in the day--the days when I was young and crazy and in college, that is--a buddy of mine brought his videocamera to record me with another friend of ours playing some songs together. When we...
