    I just got back into drumming and was going to introduce myself and add some pics off of my iPhone but I guess I didn't know what I was doing because it kept asking me for a URL. I have always just tapped on the add photo icon and it took me to my photos. If someone will tell me how I will post some pics thanks.

    Brand new from the Florida panhandle. Used to play 40+ years ago. Got married, sold the drums, got divorced, should have kept the drums. Fast forward to today. Now I want to see if I can play again. My only competition with the drums now are old cars, old tractors, old motorcycles and just old age in general-haha Putting together a kit from pieces and parts found here and there.

    New to drums (Bought my fist kit ever in June '20). Fairly new to drum chat, or chat in general. Started with guitars but really always loved it all! Classic rock and blues is what gets me going.

    OK, so my name is Bob, but Cops, Judges and my mom when she's mad call me Robert.
    I am 55 and a half (finally matched my IQ).

    Bought a Pearl Roadshow (I know, but it's my first ever) 5 pc

    Original Pearl 16 crash was bent, replaced under warranty. They didn't want the bent one back, so I (un-bent) and used 12 Sabian rivets
    (Sounds a lot better)
    Always been very partial to lovely stylings of BONZO!
    Never been in a band, bun have been with the banned forever
    I see lots of dead people, but really they are mostly just as smart as everyone else I see

    Hello there. My name is John.
    I've been away from DrumChat for several years now so I figured I should "start over."
    I live in CA and make my living as an RN in a Post-Anesthesia unit. I get to push all the really good pain meds. My patients love me.
    Started out on piano at age 7 and switched to drums at 8 when my legs were long enough to reach the pedals on my older brother's drum set.
    I currently play for a Yes tribute in San Francisco called Shine Delirious. There's a few nicely produced live videos on our site with me as the drummer.
    I've been growing a very nice collection of custom made kits and snares I'd love to show off but I can't recall the means of posting pictures that show up here. I see some players have links, others have actual pics on their posts.
    Please advise.
    Thrilled to be back and checking out all the different set-ups.
    Proudly playing:
    Doc Sweeney Drums
    A bunch of snares
    A bunch of cymbals

    Off-Set double pedals

    I think I love to play the drums simply because you get to hit 'em!!!
