trenken Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 QUOTE (Sir Lerxst @ Jun 29 2010, 10:19 AM) Looks the same size to me, just Neil is standing up. Once he is sitting at it, his eye-line will be about the same as the front crash cymbal. Its looks small not just in this pic but the one of the stage too. There are less drums, its all lower than usual too. It looks like his smallest set since before 2112. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish he'd stop dressing to "match" his kits. I like the shirt - wouldn't mind having one (even better, I wouldn't mind having THAT EXACT ONE ). It's the beanie, though. Always the damn beanie. Or African cap. I don't care what they are, I just don't like them. I would love that shirt too. I also wanted the S&A shirt he wore that just had the S&A logo on it, but could never find it. I like the shirt...and who's in it... Nix the beanies and it'd all be good. I just don't like him wearing the shirt while behind the kit... I'm being picky.

launchpad67a Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 That is a beautiful set. Classy and tight. I don't see any difference in drum sizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outtalove Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 too cool. given Neil's general adversity to touring, it's nice to see how much he gets into the presentation and the showmanship... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersyl Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Awesome!!! Thanks!! Why does everyone think the kit is smaller??? It's the exact same setup as the 3 previous tours. I love the Jules Verne themed riser and very cool to see those mysterious green tubes being part of the riser!! Can't wait to see it live!!!!!!!! Neil looks fab in that pic, t-shirt drumkit & all!

Nate1647 Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 I also do not notice any difference in the size of the drums. But I do notice that the 2 roland pads above his right hand side floor toms appear to be absent. they might have just left them out for the picture though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 (edited) Amazing kit! Love that retro sci-fi look. Hate the hat. Edited June 29, 2010 by Joshua Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

safetygirl2112 Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 QUOTE (trenken @ Jun 29 2010, 09:40 AM) Looks very small. Finally getting rid of those huge drumsets. Looks like the Colbert Report intervention helped Neil with his drum dependency! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trenken Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 I guess im used to the hat. Its his shirts that are even worse. How many members in popular, well respected bands wear their own shirts? Its really silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nettiesaur Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 That. Is . Just. Friggin. AWESOME! I love the color scheme and all the detail, much more than the S&A kit, which I thought was ugly. Neil comes with a hat attached. Get used to it. I see less electronic gear, but I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake2112 Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Wasn't there supposed to be percussion in this? I know just cause it's not in the picture doesn't mean it isn't there. Can anyone confirm this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trenken Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Overall I kind of like the S&A kit more. I loved that red/black look. This brown look is a little dull, but I like the detail in it. Not my fav of his though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for sharing this with all of us Mara! ~RGLT You're welcome, but it wasn't me. The Sphere provided the picture to FOH Lights, who e-mailed it to me for posting. I only provided the image hosting. Hoping we can now take FOH Lights and The Sphere at their words. I know we get BS posts here with BS "inside information" from time to time, but these two are the real deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This must've been moments after he told Alex they weren't going to play Jacob's Ladder. KIDDING! No really though, this is one of his best ever sets! It f*ckin' rules!!
