    Default My wife and I just returned from vacation.

    We jumped in the car and headed south. Charlotte, Charleston, Savanah, and... Ridgeland.

    If you went down I-77, you were 2 minutes from my house as you passed through Statesville on your way to Charlotte.

    I didn't order anything, but drums that I already had on order were in production while I was there. (Which is pretty cool!)

    I'd love to do a trip around to all the drum stores/shops/places I could in the states.

    Zack, you probably haven't made it to Drum Center NH have you? It's hardly worth a trip from WI but if you're ever remotely eastward it would blow your mind. Drum heaven.

    When my wife and I travel we usually find some drum related stop along the way.

    When we visited NYC we went to Steve Maxwell's shop, in Nashville we stopped at Fork's, on a trip to Chicago we stopped at Swee****er. This past trip it was a tour of the Gretsch factory.

    I have a very cool wife.
