Members artstarcordia Posted February 14, 2009 Members Share Posted February 14, 2009 I think that I might qualify for this one. Look at the pictures, and tell me if you agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members artstarcordia Posted February 15, 2009 Members Share Posted February 15, 2009 Yes, I do gig out with the kit, but I only bring a 9-11 piece, the rest stays put. As far as the bell goes, I use it to do the yyz part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Peart is one of those musicians whose setup works for them but would be absurd for anyone else. Wonder how many young drummers' technique he's {censored}ed up because they want to imitate him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 1001gear Posted February 15, 2009 Members Share Posted February 15, 2009 They get old so fast there's no way to tell. Neo must be charmed. Like he's the ONE or something. BTW those drums remind me of Phil Collins setup. Backwards though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members WildWes Posted February 15, 2009 Members Share Posted February 15, 2009 YYZ is a Rush song like JimmyNZ said, but it also stands for the airport desination they fly into when returning home to Canada.

Members mraia1 Posted February 15, 2009 Members Share Posted February 15, 2009 Those are some sweet drums, Thirsty! I think Peart is one of those musicians whose setup works for them but would be absurd for anyone else. Wonder how many young drummers' technique he's {censored}ed up because they want to imitate him. Thats a curious qoute. The rap against Peart seems to revolve around the fact that he is pure, cold technique, with very little feeling to his playing, as opposed to someone like Bonham, Watts, etc. However, wouldnt students do well to study someone like Peart purely for the technical aspects that he would bring to their playing? Like him or hate him, hes a technical monster, and I cant imagine a study of his methods and techniques harming anyones technique, as long as the other greats were studied too. What do you think? Am I off base or misinterpreting your point? By the way, hows your kids band coming along? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ckcondon Posted February 15, 2009 Members Share Posted February 15, 2009 If you look at Peart's current setup, it's actually based on a simple 4-piece kit. He started with that after working with Freddy Gruber. Take away the additional toms and cymbals and look what you have...I've used this setup and added or subtracted pieces depending on stage space. No matter what, I will always have the same basic kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members akaiser77 Posted February 15, 2009 Members Share Posted February 15, 2009 Your kit is sweet, Thirsty. I like assymetric set-ups like that. The super high toms above the hi-hat are not something I've ever tried. Nicko McBrain kind of does that, too, as you can see in this picture of his kit.
