good stuff. they don't breakdown every week either...or ever for that matter

[QUOTE=forgottenDRUMMER]ipods are a waste of money if you dont travel a lot. tahst the only way i would get one.[/QUOTE]

im on a train 3.5hrs a day. my ipod is my sanity friend

Sup guys'?

This is a bit of a stupid question, but i'm quite unsure of how to write about it.
In music class this year, there have been questions on drums in pieces etc.

Eg. What cymbal is being used in the main section of this piece?

Now, I need to know how to be able to distinguish a certain cymbal from another. I do play drums, but only to a certain extent (I have a crappy starter drum set, just a basic set, Hi-hat, snare, floor tom, bass, crash and two toms).

Any help would be muchly appreciated guys' :)

Edit: I didn't really want to make a thread about it, so i thought i'd post it in here rather than the beginners questions.

well, the hi-hat as you know is a beat cymbal along with the ride. they are used for keeping a steady beat on. i doubt you will need to now much more than that

crash's have a crashy noise, rides usually have a ping to them, china's roar, hi-hats are really washy and have a chick to them :)

Ah right, cheers guys. :)

they would be if they where made out of somthing stronger than custard.

They break too easily, especially around the headphone jack.

onetwothree. that is just a downright lie ally

[quote=logical harm]onetwothree. that is just a downright lie ally[/quote]

no, it's not. The only fault with the zen micro is that it breaks easily. The number of people who have had them break on them due to the headphone jack is high.

[QUOTE]onetwothree. that is just a downright lie ally[/QUOTE] Yeah! Cause thats what the der meister has been known for! :rolleyes:

Anyway, I have been looking at a cymbal.
In a music 123 catalog Its 168. At mass music it is 198.
Music 123 does not have the cymbal on there website for proof. And i dont want to buy it from Music123, But I don't feel like paying 198 either.

What should I do?

really, ally was der mister. i was wondering what happended to him.

about the cymbal. if you can find a link to it on 123, massmusic will do a price match on it. also, check MF. their prices are close to 123's most of the time.

wow you have a pretty nice set up, are you planning on keeping the hats?

hells no. some 14" HHX Groove hats are next...and then i'll round it out with a new 18" China and Splash

oh i just that it was one of those really good crap ones and you were planning to keep them.

That should end up really nice.

you lucky ****s and your nice kits

what kind of kit do you have?

Hey ally, i have a good question. Why are you such an as[SIZE="2"]s[/SIZE]hole?

^^^^

:'( you took a whole 1 point away :lol:

opeth suck, as do you. Ally

Nice negitive rep for good musical taste, douche bag. If i knew you better than I bet youd be very easy to make fun of.

I had a shot at a 16" sabian signature devastation chinese yesterday when i was waitin for the dude to get my hat stand :) Its pretty nice

I mean't to neg you earlier on when you where being an asshat to the guy with a DW kit about a week ago, but had already used up all my rep for the day. Then I saw your avatar and remembered.

:wave: btw, how much did i take off?

I really have no idea, i dont keep track of how much rep i have. Though i have very little. You really dont like opeth, eh? thats enough to neg. rep someone?

Have you ever listened to blackwater park? Even people that arent a fan of the deep vocals can enjoy the musical expertice displayed there.


-edit I guess you havnt noticed, but a high percentage of my posts are extremely helpfull and offer sound advice. From what i have seen most of yours either

A. Point out how somthing is wrong.

B. Dont do anything at all

or

C. Plainly be an asshole.

:lol: I've never heard any opeth before in my life

That would fit into the B. catagory.

Feel the love

It's getting hot in here, but I hope everyone keeps their clothes on...

too late ;)

How about i love that groove Abe does for DW in this promo video.
