Bear Hi guys, I saw this on youtube today. It's from the Bagshow 2009 show from Paris. What astounds me, other than the superb buzz roll Boomer executes during the solo, is the depth of his snare. I mean it looks at least 12" deep if not 14". Of course it's hard to tell exactly from a video that was probably shot with a cell phone, but it looks huge to me. What do you guys think ? And not only that but the sound and projection are awesome as well. It definitely does not ...

These two tracks have very clean horn parts that are perfectly syncopated and challenging. At the same time, the bass line will require your attendance. I am sure you will love the very dynamic challenge. http://www.amazon.com/Tony-Vega/e/B000AP9OIE Don't rush getting this stuff down. It is a whole different mindset. It will be worth the ride.

I'm currently contemplating on designing "Custom" shell skins (wraps) being that I use the programs on a daily basis and have the technology to produce. These will not be generic, but very personal and unique to the drummer. There may be some work on the potential customer like sending right files etc. but can be done.
