Let's see your POV/ Driver's seat pics

Here's what I'm using with my band. Yamaha BACN 20" Sab. ISO, 18" k Med. Thin Dark, 14" New Beats. That's the 1st time I took my 20" kick out, and I was impressed. Even outside it sounded real good.
 
My latest 6 piece gig configuration (minus wood block & chimes). Two crashes, hats, ride. I gig this in a 4 piece configuration too. 13" snare - 10" - 10" - 12" - 16" - 20". Covers a lot of ground :)

Set up last night for the first read-through of Dreamgirls with Caribbean Community Theatre.

Premier Cabria silver badge, 13, 16, 22". Worldmax Black Hawg 6.5x14" snare with die-cast hoops. Istanbul Agop Xist plates (14" hats, 17" crash, 21" ride). Got a lot of compliments on the sound, further proving my adage that expensive does not necessarily equal good. :)

Here's the setup I've been using for awhile. Yamaha Oak Customs, Paiste Cymbals. Very comfortable setup and really nice to have both hats and china/crash stack in an ergonomic position. I might put the 8" tom up where the music stand is... Still waiting on a matching 18" floor tom to pop up somewhere...
