Yeah, the rack tom is sounding dead - the heads are screwed and I want to get a G2 on it. The floor tom's ringing quite nicely I reckon. I'll still be tweaking the kit, only just got it together and couldn't wait to get playing it.

Thanks, I agree. When I play at home I feel restricted because the woman next door starts hammering on the walls. It's really frustrating, but for that reason I was just playing around the same basic thing and didn't feel like expanding too much. Still, working within restrictions could produce interesting results so I won't get too pi**ed off with the situation.
