Saw this when it first came out, living in England myself. Brilliant act! :)
Thanks for the help, I'll give that a go :)

I'm playing at my old school's music festival in March. The age range of the audience is about 5-10 years old. It's nothing big, but I was wondering what you would all do with a twenty minute gap...
Great! Thanks a lot! Can't wait to get these now!
I'm considering getting these cymbals at a later date - I like quite a trashy sound and I think these will work well for the type of music I enjoy:

Unless I'm ordering drumsticks or something that I don't need to try out, I go to a local shop. If I try something out there but I'm not ready to buy it yet, I consider it good etiquette to buy from...
I've been to the store and I was really satisfied with the a custom hats and ride, but I think the crashes might take some getting used to. I didn't really look at the Sabians whilst I was there,...
So after Christmas I finally had enough to get some new cymbals, and I was set on A Customs, but I've seen quite a few people using AAX cymbals. How do these cymbals sound in comparison to each...
Aha, PVC! Perhaps I'll try that. Thanks everyone :)
Anyone had any experience on building their own drum kit? Not like completely from scratch, but ordering the shells and the lugs and rims etc and putting it together? Is it difficult? Does it...
Perhaps I should just wait until the hi-hat becomes just as worn out lol. Then they'd look the same and it wouldn't bug me.
I recently examined my Axis Longboard single pedal and noticed that the longboard was no longer black but had gone grey/silver from so much use. I wanted to get the matching hi-hat stand but until...
Thanks everyone! Probably not something I need right now, then.
Thanks again!
My kit is literally set up in a glass box, with a tiled floor. It's on a piece of carpet I cut down, but I'm not sure if the acoustics are terrible in the room because I've never set them up in a...
I've been looking at a few pictures and I've never really bothered to ask - why do some drummers put a second floor tom to their left? I've noticed it with snares, too. Why do you need two snare...
Just came to my mind. If you had around £3000 and had to spend it on a brand new kit (hardware and all, excluding cymbals) what would you go for?
I'd get....
Mapex Saturn V 5 Piece Kit £1699...
Yea, I was considering that but then I thought that if I was going to upgrade anyway, I might as well sell it while it's new and pay £50 extra for the K rather than get £100 for the used ride and...
I'm after an A Custom box set but want to get a K Custom ride instead of the A Custom one. I've asked around but it seems you no longer get the "free" 18" crash in the box set if you add the K...
From spending ages researching about soundproofing and then realising that it wasn't really worth it for my situation, I know that for the best soundproofing you have to build a room within a room. ...
