I'd like to hear that same song with a big-ass bell brass and an Evans HD Dry.
Hey kiddies...take notes here...this is constructive criticism.Thanx Pyro.We have a bass player,he just did not know our material well enough to lay anything worthy down.He was with us for only about 2 weeks or so at that point.That is why we did this recording,so he could use these tracks and work at home.They helped tremendously and Kyle learned all the songs,well not all but 12 of them in about a month including 3 covers.Kyle is an amazing bassist for real,wait til you hear this guy.He is endorsed by Accugroove,teaches at the yearly Victor Wooten bass camps down here in Tampa and we are stoked to have him in the band.That snare you hear is a 14x5 Tama Mahogany and it does have an hd dry on it.I forgot my muffle ring that night and had no tape or anything.I probably do have the top head too tight.I usually roll without the ring because it does cut better in a live situation but christos that puppy is ringing like a crack dealers cell phone.lol.It came with the standard Starclassic strainer but I've been thinking about trying a Pure Sound Percussion 16 strand.Any suggessions on a good strainer.The selection at the store is kinda weak.The throwoff on the snare is pretty sweet.Hey,thats a great deal for a street team.Done.We did a gig in Jan. that went over superbly.The new bassist has been on standby to go to Iraq for about 4 weeks so we have not been able to book shows.He's a defense contractor.I told him to keep his head...lol.We'll find out by next week if he's going or not so we're just hoping he can stay here.Talk to ya soon Pyro!
