Subject: Help Wanted--Simmons Hexagonal Cymbal Triggers

Does anyone know where I can get me two Simmons cymbals (as used in
the SDS7 and/or SDS5, not the Synbols from the SDX kit). I am wanting
a white one and a blue one. I have seen a white?/yellow? one in the Re-
Flex video "The Politics of Dancing" and they looked AWESOME!!! I know
those were sold for the SDS7 kit, but in the video, the kit shown was
an SDS5 kit. I can tell it was an SDS5 kit because the pads
had "chrome" rims. I only saw the top view of the kit and that clip
was on an 80's compilation CD commercial (that's why I couldn't tell
if it was white or yellow because I don't know what color the shells
were). I later saw pictures of them on some Simmons drum sites. I also
found out those were rare, limited edition Simmons triggers. I am
really wanting a white cymbal and a blue cymbal because I am coming up
with my ultimate set of black drum pads and a red drum pad for the hi-
hat trigger (+ a white cymbal trigger and a blue cymbal trigger--
American flag colors for my band, Ballistic Secrets).
