  1. pretty sure danny carey uses at least some paiste 2002s as well.
  2. when i got the core set last year, i went ahead and bit the bullet and just got all Ks for hihat, ride, and two crashes (you can see them all in the pix above). i added a little zild splash and it really makes me appreciate how awesome those Ks are. whenever i finally give up on being a good drummer and am ready to unload the set, i will send them to you. but i will require backstage passes to their grammy debut.
  3. i see what you are saying looking at this pic. there's just no way i can do that with the 8x10 with the current hardware setup without putting all my cymbals except the ride to the left of kick drum which would be a little weird. will try this set up for a hot minute though...and i have moved the snare back since snapping that pic. but no traditional grip here.
  4. while i don't share hagbard's passion for responding to a proposed itinerary by performing due diligence for a merger of multi-national corporations...i would say that i agree that the itinerary is ambitious and that your kids better be the kind that enjoy time in the car. we tend to think of something 90 miles away as an hour and a half drive. that's not quite how it works traversing scotland. feels like maybe one of your spots between ft. augustus and edinburgh should get the kick. if you aren't playing st. andrews, then probably a better time to be had skipping it but you do you. if you are in chill mode in ireland the preceding week, then maybe not too bad. but that is a lot of go-go-go that you better be confident the other four travelers are down for.
  5. overall theme correct. it blows my mind how much the misogyny comes out and what gets judged. i have an aunt who is a fucking democrat mayor of a town and the most ultra-feminist, progressive person and her response to my pointing out sunday that kamala had to be the one unless you want to lose atlanta, philly, pittsburgh, detroit, and milwaukee was "she needs voice lessons, her voice bugs me." wtf, bitch? that said, i do believe that ron's inability to function like a normal person and all these weird android trying to pass as a human displays of awkwardness completely halted and destroyed his momentum...a kind of slow burn howard dean.
  6. I will give cruser’s way a test drive.
  7. truly one of the dumbest constructed scenes of all time. they let the mob overtake everything and then poof, these two slight women just bust free of the mob and run into an empty alley when they were previously surrounded by hundreds of people. okay.
  8. sorry, wasn't clear. i totally get that the alignment of the kit in the pic i posted is hilariously fucked. i had not actually set it up yet. i had just gotten the tom and had simply slid the 13 inch tom out and to the right (i previously had it set up over the snare like a jazz set) so i could just throw the 10 inch on the hardware and snap a pic. the current setup looks like a traditional kit set up. what i was curious about and asking cruser about his post was why he advocated for putting the 13 inch right over the snare instead of the 10 inch. the more traditional way would be to go 10 inch on the left and 13 inch on the right above the kick. i happened to notice that in that aronoff video i just posted, he had done precisely what cruser was suggesting making me think it was a bit less iconoclast than i had thought. so i was curious why he recommended the 13 inch directly in front of the snare instead of the 10 inch. (that said, i am 6'4 and have blocked lebron james outside shots numerous times so a little more operating space is not out of the question for me)
  9. i enjoyed this interview. think you guys would too.
  10. they just consolidated clipping with illegal block in the back and started calling it that.
  11. Why? Serious question.
  12. regardless of these dipshit guys that sprung this convo, i will note that most baseball players i have encountered in years of playing and otherwise have been absolute neanderthal morons. exception to that was chris carmichael was in all my upper division econ classes at ut with me and he was a pretty sharp dude. and he jacked a monster 3 run hr to seal the deal for the 2002 national championship game so he's cool.
  13. just so you know, in may, there is still a decent part of the island that you might not be able to access by car. particularly taking into account that a lot of what i am listing below is in the highlands. that said...besides some of the more obvious things to see (skógafoss, gullfoss, blue lagoon), you might look into the following to see if they fit your family's jam: hornstrandir nature preserve (by boat, not by hike) the springs at hvammsvik seljavallalaug pool the kjolur road (if it accessible which is 50/50 in may) the hvalfjordur fjord (specifically for glymur waterfall the village of siglufjordur thakgil canyon, huldujökull glacier gljufrabui waterfall and the eastern highlands waterfall circle Krakatindur track drive markarfljótsgljúfur Canyon morsárfoss waterfall
  14. given that you are a southwestern colorado people, are you going to back country camp type deal or staying in "hotels?"
  15. are you going to attempt to do the full ring?
  16. The problem with your post is that it presupposes that this is not the case. think I have a good solution now. Will post pix later so you guys can sleep at night.
  17. Working on it. Trying a few different things in a few different rooms to see what works the best. DW hardware is amazing and I feel like it is so solid and well made that I could build a skyscraper out of them, but they are a tad tricky.
  18. Certainly…don’t misinterpret as me saying Biden orchestrated this handover unilaterally. I’m just saying that the powers that be/leadership/donors/bundlers/biden himself would not have moved forward in this manner without having all the ducks in a row.
  19. If Harris spends ten seconds in Texas between now and November, then it is malpractice. Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, Virginia, North Carolina, Nevada. All day. Every day.
  20. There’s no way that Biden pulled the trigger on all this without all the bundlers, donors, and visible party leaders all being on board with the plan.
  21. I always kind of felt bad for you regarding how badly you took it up the ass on the baseball board being the only dumbass that was still willing to be a Pierce apologist. Now I know better. You’re either just an obtuse jackass or an incredibly stupid dong.
  22. No way it is not Kamala unless you want to kill GOTV in Atlanta and Philly. Also k own as the only way you win this.
  23. 18x22. Has a great tone.
