    Tribute band

    I wonder how a Ruttles tribute band would go over. Probably too obscure.

    Drummers who have changed brand affiliation the most??

    I have an old Modern Drummer from the 80s where Phil Collins is endorsing both Pearl and Gretsch (or maybe Pearl and Tama) in the same issue. I think it was just a scheduling error in the advertising department. The only signature item i have is the Chad Smith black nickel over steel snare...

    Loudest Concert

    Probably a tie: 1. Blue Oyster Cult / Aerosmith 1975 at Indiana Uniersity. BOC opened the show and was painfully loud. when Aerosmith came on Steve Tyler asked the crowd if they wanted it louder. You already know the respinse. 2. Ted Nugent, 1977. He was originally slated to play the...

    Your least played snare(s)

    When I saw this thread I thought most of the responders would say the snare that came with the kit. Surprised to see so many "high-end"snares. For me it would be the Yamaha 5x14 8-lug Stage Custom Birch snare that came with the kit I bought new 10 years ago. P pulled it out a couple of weeks...

    too many cymbals?

    I always used hats, ride and two crashes. For the last month or so I lost the right side crash and i am using the ride as a crash/ride.

    Is it me, or do those sticks look gigantic?

    Even those are tiny compared to these: Check out Buffin's sticks.

    show off your snare

    Early 60's Chrome-Over-Brass Gretsch 4160. Not all original ( P-85 throw-off), but it sounds fantastic. There must be a reason that they're still selling them today.

It's from the early 60's with the smooth shell and the round badge. I think it originally came with the micro...

    Too old to Play Drums

    Ed Cassidy, the drummer for Spirit, was Randy California's Step-dad. He was about 20 years older than the rest of the band.

    EPIC drum fills...

    Another John Bonham fill. On "Whole Lotta Love: When therr'e coming out of the guitar solo and back into the main riff. Those eighth notes on the snare always send a chill up (or down) my spine.
