The Owl Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 I see, I can't really tell if he has a hi-hat, but he definetly has a hi-hat pedal. I dosen't look like a hi-hat to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dosen't look like a hi-hat to me. That could be it. They probably ran out of room for it. There's an awful lot of stuff there. I even checked to see if his zipper was down.

Fish Stick15 Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 QUOTE (Deadwing @ Oct 12 2007, 03:49 PM) It's definitely something that's missing, but it's not a drum or a cymbal. so its like a riddle. is it something that when you tell us we're going to feel stupid?

Jaye Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 OH! (but probably not..) One of those electronic cymbals, the one closest to Neil, it doesn't have one of those screw things on the the top like the one in the middle does... If you get what I mean (I haven't really got great knowledge when it comes to drums...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonelymoon Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 is it that the bass drum is TINY? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Ways Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Will the answer to this ever be posted? anyways, the two cymbals in the fron appear to be under the drums instead of above them. that's my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadwing Posted October 12, 2007 Author Share Posted October 12, 2007 Yeah it's been long enough I guess. I was just curious as to whether anyone else would notice it. Take a look at Neil's picollo snare drum, or "parade" snare as he so calls it. It's in the left side of the photo. It appears to be floating in mid air! You can see the basket that it's sitting in, but the rest of the hardware, the tubing and everything that holds that up, I can't see it anywhere. I can see it for the splash cymbal and cowbells that are beside it. Did it get cropped out of the pic by mistake or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword and Armor Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 My guess is that the snare is mouned on a horizontal boom stand, that the drum is blocking from view. Since all of his hardware is hard mounted to the riser he can load all of his stands to their maximum. Watch "Anatomy of a Drum Solo" and you'll see Gump setting up the kit.

Actually, it's not a "drummer hat" per se but he found them when he cycled West Africa and thought they would work great at keeping the sweat out of his eyes. I guess they work 'cause he's been using them for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was help up by a piece of vertical piping that screws straight into the board, the same way his cymbal stands do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was help up by a piece of vertical piping that screws straight into the board, the same way his cymbal stands do. If you look just to the left of the Keypads and slightly above, you'll see a boom connection that's set at roughly a 45 degree angle and it appears to be making a 90 degree left turn. That looks like it connects to the bottom of the snare stand. I have never seen the kit live so I don't know. But if you also look down at the riser, there doesn't appear to be anywhere to mount a straight stand below it. Granted, you cant see the whole riser so that point might not be valid. I'm going to watch "Anatomy of a drum solo" later and see what it shows there. The mystery continues................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My copy of "Anatomy" is loaned out at the moment so it didn't even occur to me to double check. If you're right than that would surely explain it, and I guess my memory would just be off a bit. I was pretty awestruck looking at Neil's kit that day in Toronto, so it may have been distracting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
