Sorry Homesick...
I got busy of late; formed a new band; THE MUSHROOM COWBOYS... And I've been putting together charts, we've been practicing sets; getting booked, and drinking lots of beer... First gig is coming up in a week or so...…
Thanks... I'm already playing a set of 1966 Pearl Presidents. I've got Earthtone Skins on that set so I'm very happy with the sound... I was thinking of the TAMAs for larger venues and playing rock... I am impressed with the booming…
G'day Danny, I've copied and piasted this from from Blues Drummers to make sure you get it. What I've noticed is they are good for Jazz, they've got that nice bouncy, clear sound, me personally I play a late fifties Pearl Kit…
Let's help pool our resources to name those great venues for blues artists. Provide such info. as venue name, website, booking contact person, crowd response, how cool are staff, what to expected for $, sound quality (or bring your own PA), etc...
To all my drumming brothers and sisters: Take a few minutes & listen to a conversation with iconic drummer Baby Dodds. You can connect at www.drummerworld.com/Sound/babydoddsbenefit.mp3... It will lift your soul...

G'day Danny, I've copied and piasted this from from Blues Drummers to make sure you get it. What I've noticed is they are good for Jazz, they've got that nice bouncy, clear sound, me personally I play a late fifties Pearl Kit with natural skins to give me that true traditional sound for the Blues that I play then on the other hand when I'm playing in a hard rock band I switch to Everplay Skins. Seeing that no-one else has replied I hope that is of some help.
When I was on tour in Africa I heard cats playing drums with skin heads, it was a revelation for me! Thanks for your note Danny, I appreciate it very much man!!!
