WFL Bass drum

I've long wanted a huge vintage giant bass drum. For cheap. As cool as a big 28" drum from 1920s might be, I didn't want to pony up $350 on ebay. This past weekend I finally scored a 1950s gold sparkle 28" marching bass drum. I'm planning on adding some fiberskin heads, for a kind of dry woofy low whomp. Best of all, I paid $27 for this bad boy. It even has a hilarious Jaycees,/McDonalds marching band contest sticker on it from 1977.

MANTRIP 2010

I'm heading out for a week long trip across the South to visit my old friend Eric in Charleston SC. Accompanying me is another old friend, Shane. We're planning on eating soul food, listening to and talking about music, and drinking in a part of the country neither Shane nor myself have seen much of. I'll (hopefully) updating along the way. Stay tuned.
