What are you listening to?
Re: What are you listening to?
None of mine are worth owt like that unfortunately, only in the hundreds rather than thousands, just nice things to have tho a bit like old bikes I suppose. I am only a bedroom busker really, I sang with a band for a year or so about 7 year back, really enjoyed it but was getting a bit long in the tooth even before I started and at some venues they cant resist the ageist comments, wish I started when I was younger. I always have a look in cash generator etc, ya never know what they might have in there.
Re: What are you listening to?
Wow looks like we should meet up for a jam, seems to be an interest in the guitars!
I reckon they're more addictive than crack haha
I only bought my Tak last month, I've already got my eye on a nice Faith!
The most expensive for me was the Roland electronic kit, it's awesome! I got rid of the acoustic kit because the neighbours were moaning haha
I haven't played any gigs yet, but might have a look at an open mic night in the future.
I've been working on a tune called 'Anji' by Davy Graham..not the Simon & Garfunkel cover.
You're never too old, I'm 38 this year!

Re: What are you listening to?
Well I'll be 59 this year and I was 50 when a workmate asked me to sing with his band, the next eldest was in his late 30's. It went pretty well I suppose looking back, wish I hadn't jacked so early really. Just managed 12 months . We were a decent covers band gigging round Rochdale & Oldham at least one night a week sometimes two. I do the occasional open mic night now & again. What is the Roland gear then??, ahh sorry just realised! The drumsTomo wrote:Wow looks like we should meet up for a jam, seems to be an interest in the guitars!

The kit is the V drums with the TD-15 module, the stuff you can do with it I haven't fully explored just yet.
But it sounds great!

I played as a teen up to about 15, then got an acoustic kit in 2014 as I wanted to get back into it, but it sounded gash with the practice pads on and the neighbors weren't happy when I didn't use them haha
The beauty of this is its all through the headphones or if you want to gig you can plug it into a PA system.
I'm just re learning the rudiments, I can throw some basic beats together with some fills, but that's as far as it's going for the time being.
Re: What are you listening to?
Excellent, one of the bandmates had one of them electronic kits( not the drummer funnily enough) we practiced at his house occasionally using it, it was pretty good as I recall. Always fancied drums as a kid but I never got none.Tomo wrote:Not atm mate, still learning.norifan wrote:So you can play it pretty good then?Tomo wrote:The kit is the V drums with the TD-15 module, the stuff you can do with it I haven't fully explored just yet.

Re: What are you listening to?
I was always sceptical about the electronic kits, but they seem to be the future.
If I recall its got about 40 kits built in, plus you can add more.
You can adjust the sensitivity of the drum heads if you are a light or heavy hitter too.
The heads don't wear like skins, plus you can still accent the heads, do rim shots and mute the crash & ride cymbals after hitting them.
If you ever nip into Dawson's or a music shop, have a go of them mate.
Mine was 2k, but the cousins Roland was 6!
Mind he plays proper unlike me haha
