Oh dude...thank you SO much. It's great for auditions, it'll work, don't worry about the timing.

Good luck with your exam.

Alright kids,

I can either get a Roland TD-6 or a Yamaha DTXpress III for about £700.

Which do you reccomend?

dont ask me phil, im looking as well...

Can i point you in a nice direction as to where to get them? Both those sets normally land around the £8/900 mark.

Get your gear from [url]http://www.thomann.de[/url] :) Ships from germany and avoids customs and all that crap :)

ok, thanks!

Its pretty damn cheap too.

Shouldnt you be in school?

Actually, that looks like a killer list. I'm assuming you're catering to some metal-heads, huh?

\m/>_<\m/

I'll reccomend Freur Frei over Keine Lust for Rammstein, but that's just my taste. Children of Bodom. Nice. You may want to throw some Opeth into there, but I know how you despise them.

:rolleyes:

I have the latest Opeth album anyway. I dunno bout feur frei mind. I love Keine Lust too much :p

Im not sure wether i prefer the Tokyo Warhearts version of Silent Night, Bodom Night or not.

I cater to metal heads and punk kids mainly :)

Ghost Reverries is amazing, isn't it?

The Grand Conjuration = friggin amazing song

\m/RAWR\m/

If possible, I'd avoid playing Bodies. Yeah, it's good, but overused... they probably won't notice, but that's one sour spot (imo) on your list.

I dont think its EVER been played at all since the days of me playing there with my old band :|

Im gonna give that album another listen, see if it can change my mind about it.

No i cant do it. Its still terrible.

[QUOTE=ringworm]How close is the next nhbr? Thats cool to be polite. I hate those "Its my dang land, I do what I want"[/QUOTE]


Sorry about not seeing this earlier. Ummmmm, it's a town house, meaning our house share a wall, and luckily, that wall is in my room, no basement(FLORIDA!), soElectronic is pretty much the way to go IMO.

Phil your setlist is crap without Tool.

Biatch.

I might sneak some Dream Theatre in, see if anyone notices

making coffee. :D:D:D

well i shall start to post here.

my name is dan. i have been playing drums for 6 years and i am 14. i mainly use vic firth american classics (5b) because i love the feel of them. My kits brand is bad karma to say, because its not very good lol and i use zxt's which i like even tho some people tryed to convince me not to get them. i am mainly into rock and punk but i do listen to metal, jazz, blues r&b ect. i am in a band which isn't going to well as the bassist is a mardy mother Fo, so thats about it. im getting a new kit soon (99% chance it will be a mapex).

Welcome to the forums, ignore the knobs and you'll be fine :)

yes, welcome indeed, you will learn so much here you won't believe it.

on a side note, does anybody want to by an AA rock cymbal set brand new?

[QUOTE=Drum Phil]Welcome to the forums, ignore the knobs and you'll be fine :)[/QUOTE]


yeah the knobs might snap at ya

[QUOTE=Drum Phil]That photo is awesome :D[/QUOTE]

yea i wanted to be a smart a[B]s[/B]s so i googled door knob and that was like the 4th pic i saw.

That sort of thing would look nice if it was the same style but hand hammered brass..

I had a university audition today.. played drums. Kicked some arse too if i dont mind saying so myself.. Was supposed to play to a backing track but in the end I couldnt hear it and there where no headphones about, so I just did a little improvised 'solo', tried to show off some jazz and reggae styles and did some nice funk & rock grooves. Went well and they offered me a place at the uni. :)

NICE! Great stuff man glad to hear it!

Thanks! I'm really pleased. All of the other drummers I heard where just generic metal/rock drummers who where just banging on the kit for 10 minutes.

Was my birthday yesterday, and one of my friends got me 'The Legendary SKATALITES In Dub [I]The Skatalites meet King Tubby[/I]' on vinyl record. I havn't played it yet but its a collectors limited edition on red vinyl, looks so nice.

Sweet-ness.

And, Phil, hows your uncle man?

Ok, quick question, which 18" cymbal would be best suited for crash riding on a recording? I was thinking about an A-custom projection or medium crash, but I wasn't sure about the projection because the Z-custom projection is seriously the worst crash I have ever heard. I was worried the similar enlarged bell on the A-custom projection might give a sound I'm not looking for as well.

:(

my ex gf just told the whole of myspace i have a small **** :(

Ouch. Sorry to hear that.

funny thing is, im actually quite big, but she was useless at turning me on :P

I want to see Akira.
They've got it at the library, but my mom doesn't let me take videos out from there anymore because I accidentally ran up an $18 overdue fee on the last one I got.
