The Roc n Soc Hugger refers to the seat. It's just a slimmer version of their tractor/saddle seat (I have two of them and like them). But they aren't round.

"Too hot in the hot tub!" (one of my favorite SNL skits) :icon_lol: Funk-rockers Mother's Finest. One of my bands opened for them. They were super nice to us and brought the house down.

Dennis Bryon is severely under-rated, IMO. I've always loved his groove on Nights on Broadway. His book, You Should Be Dancing: My Life with the Bee Gees, is on my to-read list.

I'm obsessed with this band right now, partly because of the ride. LOL! My guess is it's a 22" Kerope Medium? I'm a Paiste freak, but I love this. Chris Powell on drums.

For non-molded, I use Earasers and buy the -26db version through their website (-19db is their "standard"). They also offer a maximum -31db filter. I've found them to be the most comfortable OTC earplug. I don't feel them at all. For custom molded, I use Dream Earz acrylic earplugs and also...

Well, I was thinking about Texas....

Yes, this is the difference in sound between 1.6mm and 2.3mm hoops.

Likely 1.6mm hoops on the 60s Supra, which are lighter than the 2.3mm that come on the new ones.

I hear it in #2, 3, and 4, when you're using the VF 5A. So if it's your stick, that's an easy change.

Such a killer drum track! My older brother used to play their albums. I loved them. Years ago, I made one of my bands play Tighten Up Your Wig. So fun!

Had a super transaction with @dustjacket on some Paistes. Excellent communication and shipping. Thumbs up!

100th Anniversary 6.5" Black Beauty

Loved this! Gregg is a trip! I really enjoyed meeting him and attending his clinic at the Chicago Drum Show. One of my favorites.

Those sound so good! I've been drooling over the new green marine pearl. Yours is gorgeous. Enjoy.

So far: 2 rides, 3 crashes, a pair of hi-hats, 3 snare drums. And I have my eye on 2 more crashes, a snare, and a 3-piece kit. Don't tell my husband.

What do you guys tell your spouse when you're wanting to buy a new kit that can't be sneaked in? Asking for a friend....

Thanks Mike! Four bands right now. Ha! Just hoping gigs come back soon with the warmer weather.

Thank you for all your input! I'm considering everything you've mentioned. Yes, this is a very different project that's a lot of fun. @CC Cirillo - good idea about the Pioneer, thanks!

I've started playing with an all-female "banjo-rock/grass-rock" band (which is how our singer is describing it, LOL). We have one player who either plays banjo, mandolin, or acoustic guitar, depending on the song; one player on keys; 3-part vocal harmonies, and we're adding a bassist soon. Not...

Die Weisse Rose We watched it in my high school German class, way back when. I then visited Germany twice (before and right after the wall came down) as part of an exchange program, lived with German families. When I went to Munich, I made sure to go to the University where much of the story...
