14″ New Beat hats, 14″ Paiste 2022 Power Splash, 18″ Paiste 2002 Crash and a 21″ Zildjian Rock Ride.
Looked pretty sweet tho no?Ĭymbal setup was a mix of vintage Paiste and Zildjian. I actually think it’s illegal in most states. Unfortunately, the torn ligaments in my forearm regretted that decision! I forgot that it’s a well known fact that one should NOT carry more than one, heavy ass Titan hardware piece per hand at a time lest you will regret it. Of course, all of my fully restored, heavy duty 80′s vintage Titan hardware made the trip. Needless to say, in that gymnasium…that snare sounded as much like a cannon as it did when I bought it back in 1985!Īny old cat that ever played a high school battle of the bands has a special place in his or her heart for gym acoustics! King Beat snare that looked MASSIVE with the small size kit.
After years of not playing and only a couple hours of quick rehearsal, we totally killed “North Pole Rock and Roll” as all the kids in school sang along,įor those of you playing the home version of the game, I busted out a 10″ up 14″ down 20″ kick setup along with my 1985 14″ x 6.5″ The band was pretty much an “old guy band” comprised of parents of some of the students…all mutual acquaintances which was cool and vibey. Evidently the fifth grade drummer sadly fell ill so they thought “…hmmm who do we know who plays like a fifth grader?” So they asked the next best thing to a fifth grade drummer to fill in….ME! I had the opportunity to play drums (after far too many years of not playing) for a “Christmas Holiday Sing” assembly at my kids elementary school.
It was a Christmas miracle I tell ya! I actually played a set of drums I restored!
