Lol. I dont know about grown. haha. just out of necessity. I dont have a splash, so its gotta do. :D :D
Thanks for kind words. I was really thinking about ditching the rack and going back to stands, but after I got all setup, I have fallen in love with the rack all over again.

Video. when I get the right heads on the drums. . .we'll see.

Post by: JFunky on April 19, 2008, 07:51:05 PM: ...truly blessed. Everthing is beautiful except.....................the RACK!! >:(

...get the rack toms on a Sonor double tom stand and the cymbals on stands and you're good to go. You don't have to get everything Sonor cause their stands are a very pretty Euro. The Pearl stands are sturdy and will do just fine.

...I'm very happy for you man.

Sidenote: You've inspired me to look elsewhere too. I've made my decision though. I'm going with Gretsch New Classics or Renown Maple's. ;)

I have to give Special Thanks to you, you were very influential in my decision! Man, I'm glad I typed your ear off about the kits I was considering. Lord knows I made the right decision.

hahaha. You're killin' me mang. Sabe's diggin' the rack and now youze hatin' the rack. I was really going to switch it out and go with stands, but after getting it all together, I'm happy for now. We shall see. If I go stands, its gotta be Sonor. 400 or 600 series.

Thinking outside the box is the new in. :) You've made your decision huh? LOL...not after my PM. :D :D :D :D :D ;D payback. ;D
