That's pretty cool. I've always wanted to see that show do something drum related but never knew they already had.

Man, that was cool - good find MI

So does that mean with a bit of inginuety you could make your own heads out of empty coke bottles?

I reckon you could do it - although the headaches and that involved would probably make it less worthwhile that just buying a kit - but oh well - reminds me of Danny Carey - he has a kit made enitrely out of recycled Paiste cymbals - looks brilliant.

It's the kit he used for their Lateralus tour - and I am pretty sure he used it for the 10 000 days tour aswell - hard to find a proper picutre of it though
