i'm a evans man myself no heads r touching ec2's...and i'm actually bout 2 bag a tama kit w/ a zildjian "A" custom cymbal pack and the best kick in the world which goes w/o speak but i'll mention it anywayz dw9000...trust me i'll be posting picks soon...but thatz just my opinion everyone has their own flavor and wat works for 1 doesnt work 4 da other...so it's a good thing that everyone doesnt feel everything the same then it would take away our creativity...but hard feelingz aside lol i gotta give u ur props the set is official and maybe when i become a good drummer i might get a yamaha i'm a open-minded drummer so u never kno but 4 now it is wat it is...holla atcha boy...stay blessed!
