Anyone using DW Kits will be required to give more to charity, as they obviously have more money than sense!!!

Talking of which, if we pull it off, do we get a certificate or 'Jim'll Fix It' type badge. Or do they list all the names in the Big Book?

Oops sorry, forgot we were doing this for charity!!

My kit is now on my profile, but i'll leave some of the toys at home, and reduce it's footprint

As for what I'm wearing

That depends on who how I feel on the day

Why have we got so many smilies?

OK, nuff

Thought you were going to be the one in the skirt??? 600 drummers all in a pink tutu that would make an interesting picture....

I'll be bringing a Mapex Mars 5 piece with 3 crash and a ride. As for wether Premier or Ludwig or DW are the best kits, I'm not fussed I like em all, as long as they have a good sound, and look fairly decent and yeah smileys

Let's face it, many of us joke about what is the best kit, But as long as they are drums, does it really matter!

I have played kits from all the major manufacturers and quite a few other custom kits

They all have their good and bad points and sadly, when mic'd up, they all pretty much sound the same


Though Premier are better

Na DW rule dude !!!!!


i just realised no1 has mentioned OCDP lol we all must be poor drummers lol


but seriously they do all sound the same! i think it just depends which sound good on the day lol

I'll use the Gretsch Catalina in Ash for this one - 8/10/12/14/22

Not sure which snare yet.

Sabian cymbals, again not sure which yet, but certainly Hats, a Crash, Ride, Splash & a China.

Jeez

I just remembered, weren't we all supposed to bring a.......

Though Premier are better

I concur with 2 statements - 'as long as they are drums, does it matter' and 'Premier are Better.'
Do have to say though, my first kit was an old premier one that i traded in for my current XPK. While i was waiting for it to arrive, i was kindly lent a Percussion Plus/Pro or something PP. It was absolute bobbins!! I'm sure its a great starter kit, and i know some people can't afford much, blah, blah, it it was like hitting a biscuit tin!!
So they don't all sound the same!!!


Rant over

Cowbell

HELL YEH!! I thought that was just assumed anyway?? You can never have too much cowbell...

Now I just feel so unpatriotic as I'll be arriving with a Pearl, AND Zildjian cymbals, I'll be all america :S

But you can't discard Zildjian K's, they are kiiing!!



I'm bringing my cowbell!!! We'll start a cowbell movement, see if we can get Ian Palmer an Karl Brazil on the ol' cowbell :D

I will be using my good old Premier Olympic

I was thinking should i use my ear plugs or play without coz i'll probably never get to hear 600 drummers play together again?!!

it's gonna sound unreal, i can't wait!!

Martin

Definitely earplugs, it is going to be soooooo loud

though I am getting the ones with interchangeable filters in

What's this about all these Prems!?

I'm taking my trusty Yamaha Beech Custom.

I really wanna take my two bass drums and five toms because i never use them.

Ah well. A normal 4 shells will do me just fine.

That Yamaha looks the business, but its Prems for me to. Good old V2 Soundwaves, I'll just do the one up one down thing. Must remember the cowbell, must remember the cowbell !!
