Getting ready for tour.

by Administrator on Aug.22, 2009, under Tour Blog

Just wanted to share a photo of some of the new stuff I’ll be using on the upcoming tour. The box on the floor tom is a drum pad device like a trigger finger but i’m using arcade buttons instead. Also planning on doing a kind of hybrid thing with extra pads and triggers. Enjoy!

    Bwack! Was just at the Seattle concert, I *love* your setup. Couple questions though- are you a lefty? I love the ride on the left there, and I’ve been thinking about doing something similar for my setup. I’m a lefty and I have a lot of problems at my church and other places when I play because the “community” drumsets everyone uses are all setup righty. I play open sometimes and sometimes switch it around to lefty, but man, I think I could really get into your style of ride on the left and make my life a lot easier. Any tips for that config or training for it? It was nice to meet you at the VIP table (I was the guy that told you that I try to emulate your style a lot and I also play djembe/box drum with it for my local performances)

    Yeah, Totally! Grew up there and went to Friendswood High.

    I was at the Houston show Saturday (awesome show btw!) I thought I heard David say you were from Friendswood. Is that true??

    I’ve only recently begun using electronics in my own setup. Thanks for the inspiring clips here and there of your experiments man. BTW, great new DCB album. Very hip! The best one yet.

    Was at the Roxy show. The integration of the new items seemed very organic. I was impressed with how much everyone played rather than it being looped in. What was Mark using to trigger his effects? (the thing clamped onto his mic stand.)
