Re: Setup (pretty much) complete!
Very nice! The XTi is a fine amp and it looks like you will have plenty of power for your rig. You may find that a DEQ would be a helpful addition.

Haha! I actually got those many years ago so I could play Rage Against The Machine - Killing In The Name .. you know with the 6 cowbell flams right before the first verse
The drums are a little dusty though since I got into DJing...

I left plenty of room left in the rack for such an addition, once the sawdust has settled and the wallet's not looking so anorexickkip wrote:You may find that a DEQ would be a helpful addition.

They use them in Vermont to attract groupies.Tom Smit wrote:and I like the cow bell in songs. Am I alone in that?

They had to get rid of the grass on the football field at UVM, replacing it with astroturf, so that the cheerleaders wouldn't graze at halftime.

Re: Setup (pretty much) complete!
The reason drummers hang a cowbell on their set is so that no matter how bad their timing, how obnoxious their 1/16 note tom fills, or how they can't seem to ever find a groove......the band is thinking, "at least he ain't playing that damned cowbell...".

Re: Setup (pretty much) complete!
I also like the humble cowbell, hate the tamborine (the instrument given to those without time) but also detest the bag pipes.
