im bored. heres some shit for kicks...

its very rare that i play anything more than 3 or 4 pcs. live, unless its a big show. most of the time its just a kick and a snare from random kits laying around the house when i pack up.

thanks man...i always have fun doing something i love wether theres 10,000 people or none in the room.

i dont think those videos do anyone in the band much justice, but we will just have to wait for the Spontu DVD to come out for that.

I started playing drums when I was 4...but up until I was 18 all I played was punk or some style of rock...which isnt really challenging in any aspect. triplets and double bass is pretty simple imo. lately ive gotten into jazz and latin drumming. i also try to incorporate my knowledge of drum n bass into the human drum kit rather than a computer...makes for a unique sound i think. I also play out with a very minimal kit which forces me to be creative (we play all improv music). ive got a long way to go though...still learning new things everyday.

evans on the front of the kick, remo pinstripe where it takes the beating. other than that i use aquarian hi-energy and remo emperor x snare heads. the aquarian lets the snarew ring and the remo kind of leaves it flat. other than that I just use whatever live...and remo pinstripes for the studio.

i like pearl drums. my old drum teacher has a pearl masters ad it has to be the best sounding drum set i have ever heard.

and i have an old pearl export and i love it.

Pearls are nice, but to me it sounds like you are going to have to buy their upper line kits to get a very good sound. And all of those are outragious. If you go on Pearl's site, and go to there custom drumkits price list, bass drums alone are upwards of $2,000 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif , toms $800 and up a piece, thats rediculous.
