Thanks so much!! Appreciate the feedback. And yes, yes indeed. I'd say it's more for hiding the double-chins ;)

Thanks for all the kind words, friends! We were lucky to have a pal that was going to quit his job at that studio the next week, so he snuck us in late at night one evening so we could shoot three...
Thanks so much!! That is insanely kind of you! I'm definitely glad the snare worked out. I remember having a lot of trouble with it that night, but after a lot of random adjustments (and one great...
Many months ago my pals and I set up in a BEAUTIFUL recording studio in Indiana and recorded a couple covers. The amount of fancy recording gear we got to use was ridiculous (probably should not have...
Thanks for the great feedback, friends! This is our first piece of content that we've released as a band, so it has been super nice to receive such positive feedback! We've got four more videos in...
Playing into the one mic definitely took more of a specific touch than I thought. Because of the mic placement, I couldn't really use my right ride cymbal because it was covering the vocals, thus why...
It has been way too long since I've played some drums in a video.
This is a cover of Nelly's "Ride Wit Me," but in a much smoother manner.
When we practice every week, we practice "full band,"...
A 20" Zildjian k dark ride can be had fairly cheap compared to other cymbals of comparable quality. Definitely work a look.
Well shoot, thank you! I know I've been in and out over the last few years, but my is this such a great place! And ohhhh yes. I've done my best to make money with nothing else other than a drumkit...
Oh no not one bit! I'm trying to pay off some college debt so I'm getting rid of everything except what I use for my band, which includes me using some cheaper hats and switching the 22" Kerope for a...

Just played a fun country club this eve! LOVING this setup. Just got this new PDP snare in today. I haven't gotten to hear it under a mic yet, but this evening, acoustically, it was freaking LOVELY....
It has been a good amount of weeks since I've been here! Had to come share my new lovely set of circles:

I don't at the moment unfortunately, but I can try to collect some if you're seriously interested!
I'll put in a vote for the 22" Zildjian Constantinople. Only had it a few weeks but I've already taken it through many different genre's worth of gigs and it has sounded prime for each and every one....
I'll get pictures up in a bit, but thought I'd get this posted now! Lovely cymbal. I'd love to get $300+shipping but am open to haggling. Not looking for any trades :punk:

I'm very much a two-ride guy. Sometimes I keep 'em a bit lower, sometimes a bit higher and angled. It's really about however I'm feeling that evening!
Welcome to the 22" Kerope club! It is absolutely a marvelous cymbal!
I'm in the camp of "if it works for you, do it."
....however I am also a very big proponent of a great/proper stick grip and what it will enable you to do down the road as your hands get better....
14 is more than fine. It might take some really, really low tunings to get them low sounds, but it'll definitely suffice.
I think a Ludwig Acrolite would fit the bill very well. It's a metal snare and one of the most trusted and reliable snares in all of the world of drums. With patience they can be found sub $100.

It has been about a month now of playing this new setup and thought I'd give a bit of an update.
Man o man o man.
I LOVE these cymbals. I've gotten play use them in a couple different musical...
As long as I can use my own cymbals, snare, and pedal, I will GLADLY use a house kit/share drumsets with other bands if at all possible. This heavily leans on the fact that I'm lazy/I can do without...
Wooooooooah those are some attractive circles!
I've got the 22" medium. I give more of a review in the cymbal forum.
