What instrument do you play?

You dont count TJ. We once talked about how sweet he is and his setup

But thanks for ruining it

You asked a general question of a room full of musicians .... puh-lease. Either way I would have known, his cymbal setup gives it away almost immediately, as does his three tom set-up. Not many go with that kind of style ... so :p

Personaly I prefer Mike Portnoys setup

Ah yes, nothing like a little Dream Theater to make you smile and realize just how badly your time keeping sucks.

I saw them last year about a week before Christmas. His setup didn't look that big from where I was sitting.

Anyone else notice that he uses a double pedal and not his left bass drum? Weird... [:p]

It seems like there's been a few threads like this over the years...lol

Personally, I've played piano for 11 years, mostly as a hobby. I play in about three different jazz groups.

I also play all low brass instruments, with a focus on euphonium, which I picked up about 7 years ago. I am about to go on tour with the Glassmen drum and bugle corps. For those of you who don't know, drum corps is sort of like professional marching band, and my corps is a Division I Top-12 group. It's a lot of fun (by fun I mean pain).

and your toms look a little angled there...

yea I'm missing the screws right now. they're taped on and in that pic, hence the lopsidedness.

Another question about the heads. Is it typical and/or better to match the heads (type, not tone) on each drum? IE, if I get one pinstripe head, should the other head be a pinstripe also?

It's mostly a family band with drums, bass, electric guitar, acoustic (sp?), and fiddle. We mostly do bluegrass and older country, but we've gotten distortion on my fiddle. Stand by Your Man has a whole new aura! [devilish]

Smer -- for appearance sake matching the heads is desired. However, it is all about the sound you are seeking. What you need to do is experiment on your OWN sound, and find that balance your "inner ear" is looking for. Once you have that, the type of head will no longer matter.

However, be careful when you have mis-matched heads all over the place (tops, bottoms, etc.) I would avoid any kind of pinstripe or "dot" head (or even colored head) on the bottom of anything, mainly because it REALLY hoses the tone of things (try it and see for yourself). If you even use bottom heads, the standard clear, Remo bottom (non-batter) heads are best -- and this applies to your bass as well. Get one with the hole already cut in it for mics (that looks SO much better than doing it yourself) and you should be set. Hopefully, this helps ya man.

TJ

thanks man,

I've got a good idea about what I want my toms to sound like.

ahh..drums have their place, but ... i feel like most of the time if you need that many drums your music or your audience isn't that interesting. moe tucker from the velvet underground is perhaps my favorite drummer, keeping drums to a minimum keeps the focus on the music. often she would simply stand her kick on it's side and play with soft mallets, most of the time not changing the beat for the entirety of often loooong pieces of music. the drummers from such groups as CAN and NEU also impressed me because they were able to resist the temtation to clutter up the music with beats...
on the other hand i cannot discredit drummers like ginger baker and keith moon, but i cannot stand "beats per second" type drummers who are more like jocks than musicians, which is most likely the reason groups go through drummers so quickly..don't take an obsessed,
music snob like me too seriously though, i'm more of an avant garde outsider type composer,and while i have a dozen keyboards and as many guitars and pedals and effects and plenty of unique sound makers to work with i'm usually satisfied with as little as a tambourine to keep rythm, and most of the time tempo and rythm in my own work is a result of modulation and/or conflicting modulations of different frequencies. interesting and loose impresses me more than intense and generic....byut i do understand that without the predictability and structure of a prominent drumbeat many people lose interest really fast.. different strokes for diffent folks i guess.

After Quasimodo's death, the bishop of the cathedral of Notre Dame sent word through the streets of Paris that a new bellringer was needed. The bishop decided that he would conduct the interviews personally and went up into the belfry to begin the screening process. After observing several applicants demonstrate their skills, he decided to call it a day when a lone, armless man approached him and announced that he was there to apply for the bellringers job. The bishop was incredulous.
"You have no arms!"

"No matter," said the man, "observe!" He then began striking the bells with his face, producing a beautiful melody on the carillon. The bishop listened in astonishment, convinced that he had finally found a suitable replacement for Quasimodo. Suddenly, rushing forward to strike a bell, the armless man tripped, and plunged headlong out of the belfry window to his death in the street below. The stunned bishop rushed to his side.

When he reached the street, a crowd had gathered around the fallen figure, drawn by the beautiful music they had heard only moments before.

As they silently parted to let the bishop through, one of them asked, "Bishop, who was this man?"

"I don't know his name," the bishop sadly replied, "but his face rings a bell."

The following day, despite the sadness that weighed heavily on his heart due to the unfortunate death of the armless campanologist (now there's a trivia question for you), the bishop continued his interviews for the bellringer of Notre Dame. The first man to approach him said, "Your excellency, I am the brother of the poor, armless wretch that fell to his death from this very belfry yesterday. I pray that you honor his life by allowing me to replace him in this duty." The bishop agreed to give the man an audition, and as the armless man's brother stooped to pick up a mallet to strike the first bell, he groaned, clutched at his chest and died on the spot. Two monks, hearing the bishop's cries of grief at this second tragedy, rushed up the stairs to his side.

"What has happened?" the first breathlessly asked, "Who is this man?"

"I don't know his name," sighed the distraught bishop, "but he's a dead ringer for his brother."

^um, dragon ... memorization and repitition of a few notes does not constitute an understanding of the instrument one is playing,or the art of making music with it, and even the memorization and repitition of thousands of notes certainly doesn't come close to showing anything closely resembling creativity...it might impress a bunch of teenage townies at a drunken bonfire, but hopefuly you'll get bored and develop something of your own.. unless being a clone is what you want... (LIKE THAT rev. c.?)
