I think it's still a popular set up. Not for me though. I think I'll always be 2 up, standard configuration. I just have too much stuff worked out on the standard 5 pc. kit and don't want to think too hard when I play, lol.
I’ve always been the two up, two down kind of guy. However, the one up, two down set up has been growing on me a bit. Last night at rehearsal I decided to give it a shot, and it worked well for me.

Everyone loves FREE... like this free drum forum. But like your car and even your drums, they require upkeep and maintenance and that requires money.

I know from working with Drum Bum through the years, that this forum is costly to run. It requires server fees, hosting, ongoing moderation, advertising, software upgrades, security certificates and IT work when it breaks. All in addition to the expenses that come from running a business. These costs are offset (hopefully) by members that click through to Drum Bum to make a purchase now and then, if not make a contribution to help keep it running.
On behalf of Drum Bum, thank you for your consideration.
Put your extra tom on the left. I'm biased being a lefty but I LOVE having a tom on my left for all of my kits.

I dont use 2 up just because i dont like how it looks.... but actualy, i usualy use just a kick, snare, floor.... and i put a tom only when i realy need it. I have found that playing without tom makes you think different and u have to use a kick drum more in the fills.
If I'm going to Hell, I'm going there playing the Drums
