That would be pretty sweet Earl, but I don't see it happening. Between carrying all that stuff around, and all of the setup...it probably won't happen. But I definitely think that would be pretty cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet Neil's Time Machine kit will be the same color as the Moving Pictures Tama kit. Ah hell, he has to at least incorporate two bass drums in his kit!! Both with STARMAN drum heads!!!

blindhouse Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 I'd say that it will be with the colour theme of the tour banners and such. All those symbols that you can see will end up on there the same way that he's had graphics on there for his last three kits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboGames Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 It's going to be a collection of iPods and iPads with the Drum Kit app on each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PermanentDave's Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 I've recieved a little info from an industry insider on this topic from another drum forum, and although everyone is being pretty tight lipped on the subject, I have managed to find out a couple of small details in that Neil's kit for this tour will be very close to his post-Gruber setup. It will be a steampunk inspired kit with copper hardware, "different and unique, but not too far over the top". Wish I knew more, but I figured i'd chime in with the little bit of info I know.

greg2112 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 I doubt this will happen, but personally I'd love for Neil to bring back the "starman" bass drum skins. This being the time machine tour, thatd be a pretty cool thing to do. So damn classic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

victor of fate Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 As said above, Neil needs to forgo the samples and bring back a new kit reminiscent of the the Moving Pictures/Exit Stage Left era complete with the old school percussion instruments. I especially want to see the iconic tubular bells rack behind the kit. Those are used at the end of Camera Eye I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1974FAN Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I'm leaning towards a Moving Pictures theme as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sphere Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I would think it will be a copper sparkle finish a la Time Machine stuff we've seen so far... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losingit2k Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Even though I'm wishing for the MP kit! I think he will go with the Hockey theme kit do to all the sound effects he triggers now! But the kit will have the Time Machine Logo on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PermanentDave's Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Here is a little more info. In keeping with the "SteamPunk" theme that Neil's kit will have, here are a couple of pics of the new drum key that was custom made for Lorne Wheaton (Neil's drum tech) for this tour. I'm guessing the kit is going to look rather unique based on the tidbits of info I previously posted and now seeing this "themed" drum key. http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-sjc1/hs571.snc3/31182_1350272519191_1302704245_30987092_4975332_n.jpg http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs591.snc3/31182_1350281039404_1302704245_30987107_7032717_n.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're right, but im still holding out hope for the MP or Signals kit, or at the very least the classic starman bass drum skins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish_matt Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 everyone can hold out for the old configurations all they want, but it's not going to happen. It's not like Alex pulling out a vintage guitar... Neil has played his current style set up for 14 years now. He's not going to go back and re learn his old style of playing. He hated the second basedrum and the acoustic percussion doesn't give him enough variety or control. The actual setup will remain the same. The only thing that will likely change is the finish of the shells and hardware. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
