my first drumset was a used slingerland kit that my band
director gave me cuz' the school was throwing it away...i
brought it home and spray-painted it, scotch-taped the
broken heads (they didn't have duc-tape back then), and i
learned to play

then came a new Ludwig kit, a Rogers set, a new Slingerland
double-bass kit, a Tama, Gretch, Yamaha and the kit i have
today - some thirty-eight years after i started drumming...i
admire people who don't have shit and make fucking cool-aid
or however the saying goes
