Awesome Drumset

This drumkit is just bad to the bone. Aside from the cool skull design, check out the massive elongated tom inbetween the bass drums. Everything is set low and looks easy to get to. This drumset would be a blast to play.

Gettin’ kind of scary out there. First, thousands of drummers lost studio work when the drum machine gained popularity and became easier to program. Now we’re going to lose our gigs to robots that can keep perfect time? LOL

David Osborne of the UK transforms his bicycle into a drumset! He plays here on the streets for tips. Maybe he should be in a circus. Looks like fun!
