...I have been Jammimg with a really good bunch of people over the past few months.
Last night we did our first show, a fundraiser for the Christmas Hamper fund. It felt real good to play with good people in front of a good crowd once again.
It is an older grey ponytail crowd, with heavy honkytonk/country/gospell/classic rock roots, a nice laid back, low volume vibe. I have a ton of different cymbals, so naturally I have to overcomplicate things by mixing and matching to try and put together that perfect gig set up.
I had been doing the same with my drums and snare, trying to find that perfect versatile kit that would work for high or low volume, stick and brush smacking.
This is what I settled on.
These are my WMP 18x16, 15x13, 13x9, 14x6" edge snare. For cymbals, I go with MY faves wich include the 20" Manhattan, 18" el savbor, 17" hhxtreme, 16" thin, and 14" dark hats.
It's kind of funny in a way, I have a ton of stuff but I use very little of it. I see a downsizing in my future.
