Hey no probs smiledrumez. We're all here to share and help one another. Glad that you guys enjoyed trying out the pedals
Guess I caused some to GAS for the pedals because of it :wink:
Thanks to drum_hobbyist for leaving his priced bosphorus cymbals with us to play with. Of course, also to RD and blissuicide for letting us have a go at their gorgeous snares too

Hey dewamica,
The 2nd meet-up was yesterday. So it's over. However, we should have the third meet-up next month!
Hey committee,
My apology for not turning up yesterday. I had to attend to something important. I have contacted RD the day before regarding this.

Hey guys, apologies for my AWOL, I decided to stay back at work to finish up stuff. If rla had been there, I would have die die made it though, cos he has my cymbal and I've got his :lol:
Glad to hear it went well. Eh, if confirm going to accent, drop me a call, haven't been there before, got some free time tomorrow, don't mind checking it out.
Marc, good luck bidding. Hope you don't get frustrated by a sniper.

The 2nd Meetup was - - Great.tttttttttttttttttttt.
Here I would like to thanks:-
(1) drum_hobbyist - for bringing those beautiful Bosphorus Cymbals
(2) Reuben - for bringinh those cymbals home (I know they are damn heavy)
(3) Mel - For the double pedal; cymbals & snare - great bro to have
(4) and Most of all - All those that attended this 2nd Meetup
Without you people - this meetup is nothing.
The meeting was Informal with myself & my committee not knowing what is install for all there - it's like a "Follow Your FootStep & Comes What May"....
Thanks to Jason, Bliss and this very wonderful Bro call Plainsman especially - helping us break the ice (so everyone does not feel the tense) - each and everyone was asked to do something (can be anything) on the kit - then the rest of the Bros who are more experience share (not teach) and advice how we canimprove on that area.....For those that are doing something more complicated - they were ask to slow down and explain and show how it's been done - - - This way everybody learns "Alot of Things" - It was amazing and I didn't realise how beneficial it was (much more than I really expected) from a simple, informal meetup.
The meetup was from 12pm to 4pm, I thought that 4hrs is alot, but drummers there were requesting for more hours (this shows a fact how much everyone had enjoyed this meetup)...and we are talking about app 20 drummers there only.....It would be fantastic if more drummers were there...........no bashing, no critizing,no lecturing - just Plain Sharing was what made this 2nd meetup so successful couple with the facts that everyone participated...to this I say THANK YOU Bro PLainsman & all you wonderful people there.
The Venue was a lovely place - feedback from drummers attending was that the place is so cosy and everyone feels very confortable....and we are allow to bring our own Drumset there - it can easily house 2 drumkit and still accomodate 50 people comfortably with seats.
After that, we all went for Copi-Tiam-Talk - - from 4.15pm to 6pm, where many had their Refreshment & Food......and we really talk and talk and talk but alias - have to depart eg Wify, mother, and GFs waiting - it was Saturday night liao.
PS: - For YOur Information: - Bernard has talk to me - saying that someone from the Orchestra would want to speak to me as regards to - SHARING THE PLACE (Wing Symphony Rooom) with us (Drummers in Soft) - but I do not know how much I will have to pay really.....but what I know is that if I did - than we can make use of full facilities there........
There are a few things I have to consider...(1) How much...(2) Will it be under-utilise by us (3) - if we take the place we will have to treat it like our own home - we must take care of their instrument too (as we can have access to it all), we must not let things get lost there - it's also accountability here as many people will come hopefully as our community grows from here - Therefore and also that's why the committee need more PEOPLE/DRUMMERS who are responsible and committed to help us as we grow - - - Our objective is still - to have a Physical Permanent Home large enough and affordable for us all...beside here in this cyber-space we all call home.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT"S NEW !.....
Our New Committee Members to the Drums-Meetup:-
(1) - One of the Bros here (mentioned before) went to the meetup - and was so generous to offer his Recording Studio to those attending our meetup their Venue for FREE,,(of course if we wanna drink - we pay S$1 to buy it ourself)...This Bro together with his partner - has also offered to pick those attending with their VAN from Jurong East - if we so decide to organise it at their Venue - WHICH IS RESTRICTED 25 Persons at most due to space constraint - but it was the thought that counts most here - and I say Thank You for sponsoring the Venue. They can also do some drums Recording for you all if you want there (I think it's free for that particular day only)...Kekekeke :lol:
(2) A Warm Welcome to Bro lucifersatan who had offer to help us - by joining the current committee...Thank you Lucifer.....
(3) A Warm welcome too to Bro Rustee who has also agreed to join and help us in this Drum Meetup Committee.
PS: - We would highly appreciate too if we can Have (a) Bliss & 9b) plainsman to join us a part of the existing committee for all future events - - - as we realise your valuable contribution in our past meetup and we need your experience to help us make all future Drum-Meetups as exciting as this one.....Please give us your kindest considerations...Thank You and looking forward to your most favourable reply.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 3rd Meetup - Drum Clinic (on either 3rd or 4th week) - the details will be announce soon hopefully by this week..........If there will be a Drum Clinic - the VENUE will be changed to somewhere - but I guarantee you will all LOVE it !.
