Well, OldGuyDrummer, I think you've pretty much helped
me reach my final decision on buying a duplicate kit
to expand my original. Actually, I guess you could
say that your kit is what inspired me. I love my kit,
but it's much too small for my playing style, and I
need to expand. Luckily, my better half hasn't
complained yet, and still encourages me to "go for
it". Yes!!!!
Anyways, thanks to all who have posted in response to
my inquiries, and to those that help keep this site
moving everyday. Please note that I'm very willing to
keep coming to this particular site if it means having
the resources and drummer-companionship that this
offers, but I'm also willing to move to OGD's site as
well. It's a very valuable resource being offered to
us, and I'd never say "no" if it meant keeping things
smooth, and everyone happy. Until next time...
Brett
