The Courtship of Princess Leia,by Dave Wolverton.
I've read it before...an awesome book for those that are Star Wars.

Tonight's show rebuilt my faith in LOST.
Friggin' amazing.

Appetite for Descrution although good was a flash in the pan
GnR Proved that they suck.
They can't reproduce live
They can't even keep members.
Soundgarden, Queenryche, even LA Guns made more of an impact.
GnR sucks.
Axl Rose ruined that band.

QUOTE (Der Trommler @ Apr 17 2007, 11:56 PM) QUOTE (Psykotikdr @ Apr 15 2007, 11:37 PM) Ok...here is my set up.
I know it's rather basic.
1965 Slingerland It was my Father's drum set.
The best sounding kit i've ever played.
http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b136/PsykotikDr/IMG_0225.jpgHere's a thing that most drummers don't know....The more you play your drums, the better they sound. It's the process as acoustic guitars. It's called aging....The wood settles due to the vibrations & the sound becomes sweeter (which is why many players love their old kits). That is one hell of a kit Psykotik.....It's worth $$$ too. '65 Slingerland....Those were kit (like the Gretsch & Ludwigs too!!).....I don't like the newer Slingerlands northe Ludwigs but the Gretsch's aren't half bad (since Gretsch is owned by Kaman Music-the company that owns 90% of the hand percussion manufacturer's etc...)
I love DW....I didn't think I would since I didn't like Neil's HYF-CP Ludwig kit. But I worked at a music retailer & fell in love with them....Especially the Edge snare....
The Cymbal on the far right(stage left) is an original Instabul K
complete with rivets. I love the sizzle sound.
the HighHats are some of the first American Zildjians
Everything else is Zildjian. Only the best.(Paragons aside)

I've tried and tried.
It is impossible to make a complete sentence out of RUSH album titles.
-
Rush was in a bathtub with Dream Theater and Mike Portnoy farted. Geddy loudly exclaimed, "Wheres My Thing!?!". "It is in Alex's double neck Gibson, which is not the greatest place to find a gigantic wildebeast. Neil said fear the snow dogs or they will kill your family, then outa nowhere came Kurt Cobain shooting heroin in the face. "Ow!"
Neil ran screaming, grabbed his drumsticks and his helmet, whipped out his giant spaghetti noodle, and sped out of the studio to go find Terry Brown's apartment. "Oh my gosh! I forgot my...motorcycle keys and my newest lyrics.

KANSAS...the band
in Music Of The Spheres
Posted
Anyone (young fans especially) who have never heard this group, please check them out. Great, great vocals, musicianship and song writting.
Forgot how much this band influenced my music career. A true inspiration!
I think the band is awesome. Their CD box set is something worth owning. When my wife and I were first dating we went to go see them at some Sun Tan Jam thing. I was so blown away by their performance. These guys kicked ass. Their lead singer was astounding. He had so much energy, and never stopped moving for a moment. They played so tight, and like Launch said, their musicianship was out of control.
I kept saying that these guys belonged in an arena. A great show.
Great posting.
Kansas have always been an incredible bunch of musicians.
I've seen them 3 times.They are as good live as the are ....no..strike that. They are better live.
Phenomenal.
