"We got our drums for $75 at a garage sale up the road - then bought good $$ cymbals and kick pedal. Our drummer has never played drums before and none of us know how to tune it properly. The kit is a 70's mass produced cheapy.
That said --…"
Kicks just got easier to find.

NUMBSKULL ACTION replied to Arlita's discussion Good affordable drums? in the group Bands & Musicians"Hello,
A good brand of drums is Tama, generally they are not too exspensive and they sound pretty good. Also Yamaha and Pearl are good too, do you Premier kits your side of the pond? They also sound good and are reasonable in price.
Personally I…"
THEE DIRTYBEATS replied to Arlita's discussion Good affordable drums? in the group Bands & Musicians"For our practice space, we were initially happy with a low-end drum kit we got from Craigslist (about $150-200) after we had tuned up the heads.
Later on, when we upgraded the cymbals with set of new Zildjians (about $200), the difference was…"

"If you can find a set of ddrums for $350 go for it. I'm not sure where you are located but in Canada you can get a decent entery level Ludwig or Gretsch for $700 or $800.
Also check Craigslist. Good stuff comes up there cheap…"
Arlita added a discussion to the group Bands & MusiciansGood affordable drums?
I'm looking for a decent, but...cheap set of drums. Hey, i'm an art student in college, i'm not exactly climbing the money tree. My last kit was a Pulse and I loved it, it had great sound and was super cheap $300-$350...sadly my kit was stolen...so I need to start building up my setup again. I think the Pulse set I had is discontinued now, sadly, so I need to look for something else. Anyone know how Sound Percussion and DDrum sets are? See More

I was close enough to the front that I could see their wrinkles...I had to wonder if they were tired...I could't tell. "
Arlita replied to dave's discussion First Show/Punk Show/Best Show"Saw The Casualties last year, it was fucking great.

A sleep, asleep, I'm in need

I don't know what you know
But you haven't heard
Sleep won't come
Cigarettes burn
You know you deserve
You lie awake smoke restless in your chest
I know
What happened to life's lucid dreams that you thought you knew so well.
Catch

Caught myself thinking where I shouldn't be. Looking where I shouldn't be. Feeling what I shouldn't be. Then I remembered where I need to be. On a walk to what they consider making it or better demonstrated by faking it. Fucking it. Loving it. Fucking loving it. and loving fucking. What to do, what to do, when the coffee is gone and the cigarettes burn out and the last ashes of you affections saunter away.
You go to sleep.
