Members Gremson Posted March 26, 2013 Members Share Posted March 26, 2013 So I'll share it with you. I've been wanting to change up my kit a bit. Just to put myself in another place while drumming. I saw a show last weekend. The first two bands were kinda psychedelic 60's pop. Both drummers had really stripped down kits and were both pulling off a lot of cool {censored} with minimal setups. So I did the same thing. Before: After: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Gremson Posted March 26, 2013 Author Members Share Posted March 26, 2013 "F" cowbell.And "F" Will Ferrel and that god damned Saturday night live sketch. I probably would've been rocking a cowbell a long time ago if I didn't have to hear some dip{censored} tell me they have a "fever" every time they see it.

Members rayboomboom Posted March 27, 2013 Members Share Posted March 27, 2013 I liked the trash cymbal you had. If it were me, I would have left the cymbals, nix the cowbell and kept the fire extinguisher! But that's just me. In other words I liked your kit before. But I do on occasion like to go minimal just to get back to basics and build from there again. But for me a ride and 2 crashes is minimal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gremson Posted March 27, 2013 Author Members Share Posted March 27, 2013 I felt it was time to change things up. I recorded a full length album with that setup and was really happy with it. It felt like a landmark in my band's career. Now it's time for the next step and I don't want to be playing the same fills and grooves. I love the funky china crash too, and it'll likely return soon, but I used it a lot on the album, it's time for something new.I like to work to get music. Having a ton of gear giving you an individual instrument for each tone just seems lazy to me. I'd rather work to get different tones from a single or very few instruments.
