I can't wait for you to get an acoustic kit. I am very happy with the Pearl Vision series. It is excellent value for money although there are so many good kits out there. Noooo!

You just put a hair band around the brushes so you can still hit the drums and it sort of mutes the sound enough to keep the neigbourhood off your back lol. I am very fortunate that my neighbours are either very tolerant, very deaf or I just can't hear them when they bang on the door to complain.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD Afternoon, all!!! I am coming to you LIVE from the balcony of the eigth floor suite we have overlooking the beautiful Mission Bay and the Pacific Ocean! Absoutely stunning view we have from this room. I think this is the most magnificent hotel room we have ever had in all of our travels!! Good LORD!! I am just amazed!!
We are snapping pictures and will try to post something tomorrow or Thursday!! It is simply gorgeous here, gang. Had some fish tacos for lunch and now we are taking the rest of the day off and just sitting on the balcony looking at the water. You'll see what I mean when I post some pics. In the meantime, know that I am thinking of all of you and hoping all is well with you! |

Becks, I have some simalarly tormenting/demented albums in my CD collection. I have a husband who likes to taunt me and sneaks in things like:
Pat Boone: In A Metal Mood (nearly chocked on my coffee first time that had a spin).
William Shatne: Has Been (ok so that title is so self explanetory in more ways than one lol)
Strummin' With The Devil: The Southern Side Of Van Halen ( has anyone seen that clip of Diamond Dave performing this song with these guys on the Conan 'O Brian show? and if the answer is yes why the hell was he grinning like the Chesire cat on extremely good quality acid?)
He's now threatening to get something he found on amazon called The Dub Side Of The Moon.. It's like deep reggae/dub version of some Pink Floyd songs.. Scary what's out there waiting to jump out of the closet!
