    Exclamation Aight, WHOS GOT THE COWBELL!

    Ahh, the cowbell, one of the most interesting sounds on a drumset, and since ive gotten mine, ive tried almost all possibilities with it, and these babys can give tht creative hint into any kind of fast beatings, and what ive noticed is, no one really mentions cowbells.

    so what do you guys think?

    do you own one?

    does anyone share my passion for the cowbell?

    I've got four, one twenty year old chrome piece of junk is my smallest (I had two, one was stolen) two black nameless cowbells are small and medium and a large white Toca cowbell which is my favorite. I liked that cowbell part from the YYZ solo so much that I had to play it. I've also got two fire alarm bells, and chimes - heck why not. I don't have this on my kit every day but I can pull them out if I want to.

    Nice tubs funky. I have three bells, love them. The ridge rider rock is awesome, plus I got a smaller one and an older bigger one, all LP. Use two sometimes, even do the pedal thing. Had one get "lost" at a studio once. A chrome black beauty, I think. That was the ultimate cowbell, still miss it. Mark
