Packed up my snare, cymbals, 1 cymbal stand, snare stand, hi hat stand, throne and pedals to take to church tomorrow to throw down some beats for an epic worship service.
Great looking kit. I'm with you; I love my old Export kit. I thought of you today; I found a new 24" maple wood bass drum hoop....cherry red stain....still in the protective wrapper....for $14.00. It looked like the same red color even. I remembered the issues you had with your Pork Pie, but assumed you probably got a new hoop already. If it would have been a 22", I would have bought it. I could have always stripped it or painted it black.

"Too many crappy used drum stuff to list"
Play the SONG......not the DRUMS!!!
"I think that feeling is a lot more important than technique. It's all very well doing a triple paradiddle - but who's going to know you've done it? If you play technically you sound like everybody else. It's being original that counts." ~ John Bonham

Changed the heads on all of my drums except on my secondary kick. As of right now the reso's differ and until I've got some new reso-heads for 'em, the double-pedal will be utilized.

I put one of those Evans EC heads on my Chad Smith Sig snare . The one with the center control dot . I put one on the cheap Pearl Steel Sensitone snare and really liked it . Getting lots of good feedback with that combo . Did not get the same results with the C.S. Signature snare . Going to mess with it a bit more , maybe I can make it work ....
Shopping for a piccolo snare
Drooled over the new Dixon Precision coil doublepedal and built a few Dixon Artisan-kits in my head. (Recovering from the stomach flu...)

Out gigging with the band, then spending time in the wood shed with GLS's Stick Control
That's My Rumor & I'm Sticking To It
I thought about drumming at church this morning.
I have a heck of a head cold that's now moving to my chest, so thinking was as far as I got.

Drummers can be very tempomental.....
Worked on my left hand by keeping time on the steering wheel (with a stick) on the ride to work.
Just the one hand Waaay too tempting to steer with my knees and use two sticks
After much hemming and hawing I have started wrapping my '97 DW Collectors. This has been a protracted project mostly due to my inability to make a decision on which color, and whether or not to wrap at all. I am currently looking in awe at my 24" BD covered in Delmar True Black Glass Glitter or as DW calls it, Black Ice. The decision to do this has just become a hindsight. Why did I wait so long? It looks simply amazing
