I bought a picolo snare today (aka Pork pie snare). I am looking for tips and basic info about how, when, and why to use it (other than because it sounds cool).
Anybody got some tips or can you direct me to some (free) information on the net?

hmmm because it sounds cool
lol jk i dont know what 2 say.. but wait a couple days and you'll get some realy good information from some other drummers
You use it like a snare. Many drummers put it off to the side if its not their main one. They use it for back beats but as an alternate , higher pitched sound. But you can do anything you want with it.
