He's crazy lol. I trust him and if something would of broke he would of paid for it.I've known him for 20 years so I have a lot of trust in him not to kill anything on my kit when I let him use it. Hell,when I was playing Highway to Hell he was on walking across the bar singing it. I wasn't paying attention to him while I was playing,I had my eyes elsewhere
so I missed him running around the bar acting like his crazy self. I've only taken my kit out 3 times,2 gigs with him and a jam session he couldn't make and the band needed drums.
He also is the one who got me playing drums and has taught me some things I wouldn't of had a chance to learn otherwise. Plus I like seeing him drool over my kit.He uses a pdp kit and isn't having very good luck with it,the hardware doesn't seem to be so great so last week was the first time I let him use it since his was down and he didn't have the time to fix his or get his Ludwig kit set up for playing since he retired it a few years ago after 20 years of gigging it. This week it was my idea to bring my kit out and use it.He used the pdps the night before somewhere else and since I was going I figured WTH might as well take mine and hear them played out one last time.
I won't be taking them out of the house again unless he has no other options. It's to much on my back to tear down and load them in the car,not to mention it takes every inch of my car to put my kit in and I have a small SUV type car.
I have limited time to see live music so I am taking every chance I have now to do so,I have a baby on the way so my going out days are close to over with.
