I loved the Evolution cymbals... had three of them but they are to soft for my playing. One of THE BEST sounding cymbals i've ever owned though.
Thanks Spazz. All of my other cymbals are AA/AAX. I really wanted the 21 AAX Raw Bell Dry Ride, but I got the Evolution ride used for $100 so I snatched it.
The bell on it is so killer. I really do love it.

Drummers can be very tempomental.....
Saturday night's office. My Radio Kings. Last minute fill in for a friend who was sick...FullSizeRender.jpg
Gosh bdonley...I love your set ups. If I were to sit down back there I'd be so at home I wouldn't want to leave. Nice gig.
all the best...
love the Zebra PorkPie seat
Thanks, you guys! I know a lot of people prefer bigger setups, but I 'm doing a lot gigs that don't require tons of gear. Jazz, blues, etc. Gotten into getting more out of what I've got. Jay Belarose /Billy Martin are my role models as of late. Here's my last big set.
The Pork Pie's a Savoir. I was doing 5 hour casino gigs after working an 8 hour day in surgery. After sitting on my cheapo Tama throne that long, went to the local shop the next day and bought the Pork Pie. That was at least 20 years ago. Quality is worth it!!
