I traded in the old cymbal case for a new crash, it’s a Paiste Big Beat 20” but because it had rivet holes it was like more than half off normal price

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · 12d

already had multiple comments from people today about my bags lol

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · 12d

but actually lol

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · 12d

also the bag is comically big lol to fit a 24” cymbal with padding it has to be like closer to 26” so now I look insane transporting it anywhere lol

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · 12d

ok! so I got a bag for it and have played it and I love it! but I now need a crash and didn’t think about having to get a bigger crash which is more expensive lol

what where who

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · Sep 21

worst thing about drums is u can buy a new thing and have the means to actually play it for a whole month lol

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · Sep 21

apparently everyone bought the cheap 24” bags and nobody restocking them eh

managed to sell all my other cymbals to pay for the 24” bash ride but forgot that the bag I have is too small so now need to also sell that to pay for a new cymbal bag

I posted this on the MacGyver Percussion Group on Facebook and have never had so much engagement online before in my life

def more into making than buying these days, I realised my fave part of being a nerd is “researching” and if you learn how to make stuff the “fun part” (for me) lasts longer (or never ends!)

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · Aug 27

im not too bothered about having repaired cymbals but im always a sucker for weird stuff nobody else uses lol

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · Aug 27

then I’d have the endgame cymbal set up I guess

15” Hihats
20” Crash
24” Ride

either going to be very popular or unpopular lol but I’ve read that the Bash Ride is very controllable and not too unwieldy

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · Aug 27

plan is to pay CymbalMagic to o-zone it, maybe a pattern like this

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · Aug 27

that and I also got a cracked Stagg Genghis Exo Medium, it was at a drum practice space and I bought it off the landlords! it sounds incredible, guess Stagg is a brand like Dream in which you get occasionally one incredible sounding cymbal out of uhh loads lol

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · Aug 27

some reasonable ones on eBay rn, I think if I sold my repaired HHX Evo ride and my Bosphorus Traditional I’d just about cover it

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · Aug 27

guess my drum tech shit goes on here, I’m so tempted by a 24” AA Bash Ride

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · Aug 27

so my friend’s birthday is coming up and he’s also leaving London and since he’s a noise musician, figured I’d built a noise thing w bits I’ve acquired! been really fun and interesting, basically learning about oscillators and FM

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · Aug 27

still figuring out what I do w this site lol

singer’s age is >= 30 (if age is >= 40 even higher probability of being a good band)

patrick @evilguii.bsky.social · Jul 5

less than 100% of the band wears workwear
