Members 6topher Posted December 23, 2011 Members Share Posted December 23, 2011 Been sitting on a couple of these drums for 8 months waiting.... Finally scored the bass & put this together Tuesday night - will gig with them Friday night (12/23) in Baltimore for the 1st time - so stoked! Ever sit in a chair in the basement and fall asleep at 2 am looking at your "new" drums? I'll try not to get emotional with this holiday tale of a family finding each other...*sniff* Silver Sparkle Slingerlands in 20/12/14 with my '65 Red Sparkle Slingy Hollywood Ace. 14x20" is a '65 - 14x14" is a '67 & the 8x12 is a '70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 6topher Posted December 23, 2011 Author Members Share Posted December 23, 2011 Thank You! The 12 sings, the 20 rumbles & the 14 does a wonderful combination of the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 6topher Posted December 30, 2011 Author Members Share Posted December 30, 2011 Thanks! ...and at least I was the 1st person to spill beer on them - damn those straight leg floor toms on a tiny stage with a beer in each hand & a bottle of water under my chin trying to get in & settled for the 1st set. doh! so fun to play, but a small venue where I really had to hold back on the volume.
