Posting for a friend. He is a guitar player and bought this for home rehearsals - and it was rarely used (we went with a Roland V-drum and in-ear monitor system for silent rehearsals). Very clean and in excellent condition. Great rock sizes. LMK if interested - I have boxes and can help him...

You find the oddest stuff surfing You Tube. They looked like they were having a lot of fun with this.

The quarantine clean-out continues. The Mapex Saturn and the 85 Yamaha Tour Customs SOLD and I'm going to start listing a couple of odds and ends. Let's start with the humble Acrolite in Black Galaxy finish (aka the "Blacrolite"). This classic aluminum shell drum outperforms drums twice its...

1985 Yamaha Tour Custom – Cobalt Blue in standard sizes 22 x14, 10 x 8, 12 x 8, 13 x 9, 14 x 10 and 16 x 16 . VG condition. It has a scuff or scratch here and there but nothing major. Chrome is very nice – a few of the bass drum lugs have a very light spot of roughness but no pitting and the...

$1200 -- Stunning 8 piece Mapex Saturn Electric Purple/Berry Burst Sparkle Lacquer drum set. Excellent – 9.5/10 with unplayed original clear Remo Emperor heads. Shell bank set. 22 x 18, 10 x 8, 12 x 9, 13 x 10, 14 x 14, 15 x 14, 16 x 16 (yes 3 floor toms) and 14 x 5.5 snare. One owner (me)...

I have an old 5 x 14 black acrolite with some cruddy hardware (shell is perfect). I am thinking of hot-rodding with som black chrome rims, black chrome tube lugs and throw off. Any idea on size of tube lugs I would need?

Will bluetooth from phone or straight from laptop. Not adverse to making investment for quality. Go.

A short, older man stepped up to me, sticking out his hand and saying something I couldn't hear. Thinking "Now who's THIS?" I took out one of my ear monitors and said "Sorry, I couldn't hear you." He spoke again, smiling, "Hello, I'm Charlie Watts." "Oh!" I said, taken aback, "Hello." And I...

Love my R12 R-n-R. After nearly a decade of use - replacing the wheels. Anyone have a good method of removing those bent pin doo-hickeys. I wrestled with one for about 20 minutes with a pair of needle nose pliers, regular pliers and a pair of wire cutters. I thought to myself there has got...

I have a day and 1/2 upcoming in Austin. Loaded questions: Best drum shop(s) to visit? Best recommendation for a live music bar in downtown area on a weekday evening? Best BBQ & Tex-Mex joints? I am staying downtown w/ no car - so everything should be a walk or local Uber if possible. Go.

Suggestions for robust stock & inventory?

Bryan Auger and The Trinity I guarantee this is the grooviest thing you will see all day ("yeah baby yeah). I love the drum and cymbal sounds on this track. &list=RDnxF2K0TqRHk#t=21

Great article from Village Voice. http://www.villagevoice.com/music/almost-famous-almost-broke-how-does-a-jazz-musician-make-it-in-new-york-now-8768844

I saw this show a few years ago - and Michael White was holding down the drum throne. This iteration of the band has Shannon Forrest in the drum chair and he is laying down some beautiful grooves on a tasty sounding Noble & Cooley kit with Paiste pies. Check out this version of "Lowdown" and the...

I am thinking about hotrodding a standard blacrolite I have. Perhaps adding tube lugs, and an R4 strainer. I was toying with the idea of also putting a set of diecast rims I have laying around on the drum. Has anyone ever tried that? I suspect it might choke that nice open "pop" you get out...

Although a household name among drummers, musicians and serious rock fans - casual music fans may not know who he is. Nice article in a mainstream non-music magazine: http://www.esquire.com/entertainment/music/interviews/a40333/kenny-aronoff-most-famous-drummer-you-never-heard-of/

My latest restoration project. I got these from Forum Member delrey who purchased them from another Forum member previously. The motorcycle grade chrome polished up easily. The finish was really dingy, but thanks to some elbow grease, cobalt blue auto touch up paint on the very few nicks here &...
