DRUM GEAR – - Now the word, drum gear has sort of a double meaning. It is of course “drum gear” as we all know it (drums, drum accessories and cool hardware)… but it is also now a brand. DRUM GEAR presents the latest brand in drum clothing and apparel, shirts, pants, jackets and awesome accessories. – Cool!
New Drum Clothing and Apparel from DRUM GEAR
The brand is the latest offspring of Drum Bum, Inc. (that’s us!). It will focus on drummer gifts and gift ideas like Drum Bum but everything will carry the Drum Gear logo while Drum Bum represents many brands other than it’s own. DrumGear.com currently features drummer T-shirts, hats, bags, boxers, lounge pants, wrist bands, polo shirts, button down shirts, coats / jackets, mousepads, tumblers, multi-tools, lighters, towels, water bottles, keychains and ear plugs.
The next time your dad says, “Stop playing the drums!”, I think you’d better stop. In San Antonio, TX, an 80 year old father fired a gun through the drummer’s bedroom door when he would not quit playing. The bullet grazed the son’s head, almost killing him.
Trick or Treat! – I think I’ve found my Halloween costume for this year.
This Muppets “Animal” design is sure to scare the pants off… um, ok maybe it isn’t that scary, but it sure is fun! And finally… a costume for us drummers!
First we had DrumLine, then we had StepBrothers… now we have “Adventures of Power”. This movie (being released October 9th in New York City) is all about Air Drumming. Yea, you heard me right – AIR DRUMMING … It begs the question, WTF???? … The trailer looks like it would be a stupid movie but who knows, I’ve been surprised before. I’ll wait to let you guys be the guinea pigs {grin} and I’ll wait for the reviews before spending the money.
The coolest thing is… there’s another movie about DRUMMING! – - Awesome!
Update: Adventures of Power gets a review (“drums up”!)
Kick Port bass drum insert / enhancer. There’s a buzz going around about this kickport thing. Apparently this bass drum insert (or port) adds some low end to your kick drum. The KickPort is currently being used by a “lot” of famous drummers. That tells me this “buzz” is worth looking more into. I’ll do a little more research and get back to you.
Ok, maybe it wouldn’t be considered the “best” snare drum by some but I labeled it this because I just can’t believe this thing sounds this good when the dude made it from a wheel!!!
