I doubt it, if even the kit is provided.

Wow...nice house kit! I played a place out in Montauk, Long Island that has a GMS house kit and K Custom cymbals! My band has played there before and the owner said because the place is so far away, he wanted to provide complete backline so all the bands have to do is bring their guitars and sticks/cymbals and what not. Not bad for a small bar. The guy is really cool and is actually a drummer which is why he didn't skimp on the kit. The heads were beat to hell though.

The stage at that place looks pretty decent too. How'd the gig go?

My buddy's band Jealousy Curve plays at the Grape all the time... I mentioned them before. I never seen them there, but now it makes sense why I seen pics of him behind that TAMA kit... He normally plays a vintage ludwig or his custom MRP kit...

NICE!!!

I hate playing someone else's kit though... I'd rather have the hassle of bringing my own... That's just me...

Good deal!!!

I agree....sometimes it takes longer to dial in a kit position/tuning wise than it would be to setup my own kit.

And speaking of MRP, a buddy of mine grew up with Mark from MRP. We've been trying to plan a day to head over and visit the shop for a while now.

Yeah Man... Shane!!! He's ridiculous... He lives right down the street from me... I never took drum lessons, to actually learn drums, but took lessons from him for about 6 months a few years back... He's very good and 'showy' and pulls it all off and together. Some of the stuff he showed me when I took lessons from him was a joke... I was like, what the... :) Seriously, if you ever get a chance to check out Jealousy Curve, do it!!!

Hey Pin... What's your bands name??? You do original stuff? You guys ever play the Silo up in Reading,PA??

I play in Quick Step John and Chelsea In Orbit. Both are original bands. I have never played the Silo but know that it is a great venue.
