I hate beer also

Whisky, Brandy and Rum are where it's at, Oh, and Cider!

And is this Shure mic pack good for the price?
1x PG52 bass mic
3x PG56 Tom/Snare mic
2x PG81 overhead condenser with stereo holder
3x A50d clamp
6x 4.5m XLR cable
and robust carrying case

for £275 with VAT good?

Chippy569 02-24-2007 12:09 PM

PG mics are not good, and the XLR cabling may or may not be ok.

better than nothing, but you get what you pay for.

Quinto 02-24-2007 12:10 PM

it sounds like a pretty okay deal, look on ebay to see what each individual mic is selling for.

So you think it's better to get the higher stuff, like, SM57's and Beta's and what not?

fishbulb 02-24-2007 12:50 PM

Well obviously, but are you willing to spend that kind of money?

Chippy569 02-24-2007 01:03 PM

if $ = quality, then what kind of quality do you need? if you're just looking for a recording for shits and giggles (or just for practicing) buy a $5 PC mic and use that. If you want a demo, go to a studio. If you want to go crazy doing your own recordings, make sure you have a stable, well paying job first.

Thats only the turbo version.

The accelerators are a good deal pricier.

maniac0796 02-24-2007 01:41 PM

Pretty much. It's a pretty retarded idea in the first place if you're doing it to save animals, cos the animals gonna die and end up on the butchers counter anyway, so why not eat it, instead of waste it.

poopoogaypoonn 02-24-2007 01:44 PM

maybe for health reasons

Drum Phil 02-24-2007 01:44 PM

I rarely eat meat.

Not because i care about animal rights (i do to a certain extent) but because just looking at red meat turns my stomach.

I dont mind some fish or white meat every now and then. I just dont really like meat. The taste, the texture, the look.... any of it.

For dinner im having fallafal, rice and vegtable spring rolls.

Corkofski 02-24-2007 01:47 PM

im a hypocrite

i went on a peace march, then went and ate a fully loaded meal from KFC

mysticalyeti 02-24-2007 01:48 PM

I love meat.

Meat is good.

DrumIntoTheNight 02-24-2007 01:49 PM

And what's Peace got to do with KFC?

So instead of having your own views, you should just do what everyone else does?

Drum Phil 02-24-2007 01:51 PM

Everyone knows theres anthrax in the fries and little locator chips in the chicken.

Plus they use the delivery trucks to smuggle arms.

fishbulb 02-24-2007 03:40 PM

Just checking:

1. Cut a full lemon in half.
2. Squeeze and rub it all around the cymbal.
3. After that, wait a minute for it to do its stuff.
4. Rinse and wipe it off.
5. Dry.

Or did i miss/do anything wrong?

Drum Phil 02-24-2007 03:45 PM

Rinse it with water. Dry VERY carefully.

I just squeeze the juice and use a cloth to rub it into the cymbal.

Corkofski 02-24-2007 03:53 PM

phil, stop sending me mms messages... my phones being shite atm...
