Hi All! It seems that somehow my old account got lost during a few renovations to this site & forum, but that didnt keep me from signing up again  Some of you will probably remember me, but for the one that dont: I`m 25 years old, study & work & live in the Netherlands (as well). Currently moving out to a student room so I have to spend less time in traffic and more time behind the kit..as soon as I get a neighbour-friendly one |

Haven't sat behind a kit since the mid 1980's. Played guitar all my life, and when I told my wife I wanted to play drums again, she said, "So, what are you waiting for. Go do it."
Long story longer... bought a used kit from a friend, new cymbals, new heads...small investment to see if I still have it in me. Already I am looking to upgrade one piece at a time. If nothing else, it's a great workout!

New ish.....
I have been a member since back end of last year and have posted on a few things but never formally introduced myself.
My name is Paul, I am 21 and from Preston in Lancashire (United Kingdom)
I have been playing properly since June 2007 when I got my first and current drum kit (Pearl Forum). Fairly recently I got myself a pack of Zildjian cymbals and more recently, Remo heads.
I play mainly rock stuff, with a bit of funk.
Nice to meet you all

Hello Peep's
Just getting the passion back after a long,long layoff and I came across this forum and very glad I am too. I'm very pleased to meet you all....so to speak.
Anyway, before I logged on I was looking at a thread about soundproofing one's apartment and now the forum seems to have changed it's format somewhat and I can't find it. Forgive me if I'm doing something obviously dumb, I have had very little sleep in the last week and I'm having a tough time concentrating.
It was in a section called "Tips and tricks", right above one called "Acoustic drums", I think!
Thanks.
Spangles.

Hello All,
My name is Aaron Butler, I'm 23 been playing drums for a little over 10 years. I finished my BM in Percussion Performance about almost a year ago and I'm now trying to figure out what grad school I would like to go to.
I guess I'm somewhat of a refugee from the cymbalholic forum, but this place seems like it'll fill the void nicely.
Looking forward to conversing with you all,
Aaron

Greetings one and all... I was once a member a long time ago and now returning... Err... Reincarnating? LOL Anyways... The site and forum look awesome!
I drifted away from many things for personal reasons, but look to return and get back to basics. Mister Acrolite might remember me, it is I; the same IronCobra with the "Cobra Pit." LOL Great to see you still here, man...
Take care
--John

Hola everyone, I am Jim and addicted to this site already. Been on-line about a week now and a VIP for a day. Lovin all that I have seen and really am impressed with the knowledge level and variety of posting topics from all of you. Bart is the man, glad to be a part of it and thank you for the warm welcome.....I have played a number of different kits in the past but have a passion for SONOR. Play all different genres of music but have a passion for the blues, jazz fusion, and smooth jazz. I am currently playing in a band called Daddy'z Breakdown out of Grand Rapids, MI.. We have been together for about 4 months, playin out already and have 2 big festivals lined up so far for this summer. We are playing a combo of originals and rearranged covers, but not the normal covers. Love playin and hope to continue playin until it is no longer physically possible.

Welcome! This really is a great place. I'm from just over the border in Elkhart, IN and I play Grand Rapids quite a bit. We're playing Skelletones on Saturday night! |
