Music Board	re: Drummer Talk: setups & hardware discussion/questions - Oswald on 6/15/13 at 3:49 pm [quote]Anyone else working on anything?[/quote] Funny you should ask. :lol: I recently "rescued" a Pearl Forum kit from the attic it's been sitting in for three years (18" kick, 10" rack tom, 14" floor). I put new batter heads on both toms today, along with a new Emad 2 on the kick batter an... Jump to Post in Topic - View Entire Topic

If I had 4K to spend on a new kit, that's the direction I'd go. Even a used kit. Mine is 17 years old and she still sounds beautiful and, the best part is, she's [u]so[/u] easy to tune. I've ne...

Music Board	re: Drummer Talk: setups & hardware discussion/questions - Oswald on 6/7/13 at 1:37 pm [quote]Steve Ferrone[/quote] Indeed. Steve is phenomenal and I love watching him play. He's one of those drummers who always looks like he's having the time of his life when he's playing.

Music Board	re: Drummer Talk: setups & hardware discussion/questions - Oswald on 6/7/13 at 7:42 am [quote]the double bass pedal [/quote] I envy you. I'm so ready to start incorporating some double kick patterns into my fills, but, I simply don't have the $500 to shell out right now on a good pedal. Glad this isn't the OT, or I'd be smothered under all the "sorry you're poor" comments... ... Jump to Post in Topic - View Entire Topic

Music Board	re: Drummer Talk: setups & hardware discussion/questions - Oswald on 5/24/13 at 4:31 pm Yeah, I taught myself how to play when I was in high school in the '80s, by listening to "hair metal" like Def Leppard, Dokken, Ratt; etc. as well as listening to my parents' old Boston, ZZ Top, Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin records. The only real jazz "playing" I do is if I set up my little Pear... Jump to Post in Topic - View Entire Topic
Music Board	re: Drummer Talk: setups & hardware discussion/questions - Oswald on 5/24/13 at 10:24 am Like Srbtiger06, I'm a single pedal-player, so I've never tried to land a metal gig. I play mostly '60s/'70s/'80s pop-rock stuff for the cover bands I'm in, plus modern P&W stuff for the church I attend. I really want to do the jazz thing, but, I also want to venture out and try the double-kick ... Jump to Post in Topic - View Entire Topic

Music Board	re: Music Board Drummers - Oswald on 5/16/13 at 2:27 pm I ordered a custom kit from Risen Drums several years ago.
