A couple inches distance here and there makes a huge difference when you apply it to a whole kit. Thing looks impossible for me to play when i am back there. However, he is a big guy and therefore, gotta take that into account... he makes it work! [img]wink.gif[/img]

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I had the exact opposite sensation when I sat behind Thomas' kit. His gear was so close by and low. I'm 5’10 and he's 6’4; go figure. And his pedals were the loosest I've ever experienced. A kit setup is SO personal.

I have everything WAY close to me in my set, way in... my arms never completely straighten when i play because everything is so close. Didn't you notice how large the height differential was between his toms and his snare? Also the cymbals were way high and i am not used to the ride being where he has it... also the crashes to the far right seemed way out there. I mainly was bugged by how high the toms are off of the snare... i would be ramming sticks into the shell all day.

... but, he is Thomas and i am NOT! [img]rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]wink.gif[/img]

It certainly works for him! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Bergmeister that would be an awesome idea for a t-shirt!

lol i would buy it!

Caption... "My name is Thomas and I will be your Drum-Arobics instructor for today..."

S.P. , I can make a shirt but I feel I would be exploiting Steve's board. If the design is cool and everyone approves/contributes then the proceeds should go to HOD. On another note, check out what this board did...

give you any ideas? Just a thought. Would take a huge amount of effort, but would be great to do this here! (oh man I just dug a huge hole didn't I?)
