Who has Black Fridayed?

[Dumpy]

Sweetwater got some of my Black Friday shopping, including two Blue mics and my favorite drum mic, the Roland drum trigger/mic for a paltry $99.

I also bought another bike frame that I have to hide from Mrs. Dumpy.

What have you Black Fridayed thus far?

Most of my BF has been and will be non drum-related. Mostly gifts for the family’s wish list and clothes for myself since I’ve lost about 70 lbs since March and even my old “skinny” clothes are too big on me.

I did just score a Yamaha “Hip” drum set a week ago with a pre holiday 20% off coupon from GC, so there’s that.

 

[Skins_in_the_game]

just picked up a new 18 med thin A from drumming deals.com that they had on the live stream this morning. was 50% off. also got a 24" cymbal bag as it was a great deal as well and I didn't have a bag that can fit larger cymbals.

No plans to until somebody posted(thanks a lot...sighhhh : )the Zildjian 16” K Sweet Ride Crash. Picked that up at Sweetwater and 4 drum heads to have on hand.

 

[Cauldronics]

I snagged Fab Filter Pro Q3 which is an equalizer plug-in. It’ll be used when I’m mixing drums and other stuff, to keep it drum related.

Cherry Audio was also giving away a synth plug-in based on an old Radio Shack (Realistic) synth from the 80s. If you go to Cherry Audio it might still be there for free. I messed with it a little and it sounds really good.

I hope I’m not prying too much, but did you mean to lose all that weight?

 

[Squirrel Man]

I'm not even perusing, I spent enough over the last 9 months.

Ain't gonna do it!

In my gear drunkenness, I almost forgot picking this up, too. It's kind of a channel strip plug-in with eq, compression, distortion etc and some other cool tricks. I have the other stuff from Korneff and when they announced this new "AIP" plug-in yesterday at a discount, my wallet didn't allow me to think it over. They make great stuff.

Nope. It's me,the boy and the cat. The cat got a big heap of catnip to play in. The boy just discovered a box of Hank the Cowdog books. And I'm scheming to try and make best of use the next bit of project time I get. All are happy. My wife is out in the Black Friday crowds doing what she loves however.

Sweetwater has a great BF deal on Ultimate Support cases @ $79. (Didn't even know they were still making those)
I bought a set a few years ago...sturdy BUT they run very tight.. getting my 8 x 12 tom w RIMS mount into the 9 x 12 case (diameter wise) was really tough, and my 14 x 22 BD was a very tight fit as well... so that can be a pain, esp after a gig when you don't feel like fiddling with something like that.

Still a good deal especially if you are just looking for a storage solution.

Fantastic Bag Set! I have the standard sized version, they're as good or better than most of the more popular & expensive bags. Stout & durable, really nice quality, especially for that price. Highly recommended!

Yes, sorry I should have clarified that. It's intentional. Smaller portions, rarely eating out, and switched from craft beers to Miller Lite. I'm fine, thanks.

Crap for the kids only. The 8 wanted toys. The 12 wants a gaming PC. Wifey always wants stuff! I do 98% looking and 2% buying.....

 

[drumsforme]

Picked up a used Black Panther Premium Snare 5.5x13" on the GC used. It was priced at $149 which is a great price and still had the factory heads in almost like new condition, meaning it was not played much. No Black Friday discounts but the price was good as I have been shopping for one for weeks.

I pick up the 16 K Sweet crash as well. Too good to pass up.

 

[CigarScott]

I reheaded my kit. Bought what I could at DCP then got what they didn't have in stock at MF.

 

[sixplymaple]

I made off with a Paiste 8” 2002 Splash at regular price and a Paiste 18” Twenty Custom Metal Crash for $230! Free shipping and no taxes. Can’t beat that!

 

[p83]

i got up EARLY this morning to get $100 off a vacuum cleaner. i really needed a new one. then i went back to bed.

 

[bpaluzzi]

3 new mics (tube LDC, pencil SDC, and a vocal dynamic), a Roland RT-MICS trigger (thanks to the heads-up on here), a 16" A Custom (likewise, from someone mentioning it here), and a Tama Club Jam Mini.
