So great to see you sharing the joy of drumming Todd, as well as a word of comfort and experience to a young soldier. ✊🏼 I finally got my brothers approval to buy my 3 and 5 year old nieces a drum set for Christmas. Needless to say I rushed right out and bought a little pink sparkle kiddy set and have been customizing it and tuning it ever since. 🔧🥁🎶👌🏼 I’m so excited to give it to them and start teaching them the basics!! Hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas! 🎁🎄 🎅🏼
@@APdrums77 well done my friend with the purchase. Noisemakers are always good. What I suggest just before you leave is to get them hyped up on Red Bull and chocolate then, make your departure……. Yeah baby, that’s how memories are made.
@@gregwonhoff7161 Greg, my old buddy there you are. Well after dropping the drums off at his house the other day I found something here at the house that I left behind. It was that 13 inch Tom that I bought to go along with the pearl kit. If I took it over to him, they would have to spend more money to try to get a mount or other items to add it to the set so maybe it was better than it was here. Plus, it does not have a mounting bracket for a Tom arm anyways. What it does have sitting next to it is a spare snare throw off that I have. A pretty cheap one off an old Ludwig snare. I still have 13 inch snare batter heads from that old sound percussion lab one that got scrapped last year so if I convert this tom which I think is a 13 x 10 into a snare, it might be something pretty cool. So I think my next video will be building a simple snare out of a Tom.
@ Well, Sarge, that old green army set is my favorite. I just love the paint job you applied. Also, you are a very kind man for giving that young lad a quality set to begin his journey with.❤️🎄🙏❤️🎄🙏❤️
Season's Greeting's Todd/ Michelle! So good to see you. You sound fantastic from the last few times we were able to share. It's hard to believe the snow is flying again. Great work with the Pearl kit. Sharing is caring, and YES, you do have too much equipmen, like you said, but passing it on to another individual to learn the art of Percussion is freaking huge. It is heartwarming to see individuals caring about the military, and your encounter will go a long way without a doubt. I was hoping to hear how your granddaughter is making out with the Percussion. ( Eva ?) Take care of yourself. Christmas was a time of having dinner with extended family and being thankful for what we have. Not necessarily what we need. Man made a mess of the theory and act of Christmas. The little drummer boy brought all he had...and that was a beat...music. Ra pa pum pum Happy holidays
@@edwardkaminsky8142 always a pleasure Mr. Ed. I love hearing from you sir. Thank you for all the kind words. I’m afraid Ava really hasn’t made much progress in regards to drums. I was hoping she will but right now she’s interested in doing some choir things at school so we’ll see how that plays out. Maybe it will lead back into the drums. So I go back to work tomorrow and my friend and his son has had two days to sit on those drums so we’ll see how everything is playing out with him. I have a feeling it’s really going to stick with him because he was really excited. Again, that’s great to hear from you Ed. Hope all goes well with you out there. Enjoy your time this holiday.
@CheapDrumsGuy 22nd will be one year in lessons. I am FORTUNATE. I wished I had a son to drum. Instead I have a daughter getting married next October...get this. The lad she's marrying plays Pearl and Zildijian's. I pray the kid you helped goes far with the Pearl's. 💪💪💪 23rd I turn 64.ooking forward to your next post. Full moon tonight. Should be out up your way I Imagine already.🔭🌚
@ pearl drums, and zildian cymbals? Bah! Well, at least he plays so that’s a good thing.. good for you and your lesson buddy looking back I should’ve done the same thing. I would be a lot farther along than I am now. Oh well should’ve would’ve could’ve.
Thats great that the Pearl kit went to a good home! 🎉 The G2s should be a lot beighter and probably slightly more open. BTW i tried out Attack ThinSkin 2 heads. Actually quite a nice sound!! The coating seems to chip off kind of easy. At least on my floor tom. Maybe I got a lemon because the rack tom is fine. Anyway, big difference from the Proflex. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Todd! You and yours. 🌲☃️🎅🏻
Spagz! Yeah, I don't know what's up with those Attack heads. The Red Dot snare head is number one in my book but the others are questionable. I had the same chipping issue but yes, they still sound good. You and yours have a great Holiday season as well buddy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
🤘

@@gregwonhoff7161 that one turned out pretty well I wish I would’ve done it to a better drum set though
