That's a neat site! Is there a way to register for "non-professional" use, or do you just make up something?

(Or am I already hosed because they read this site? :lol: )

[quote="lennon211I like how Moon only used half of his Premier drum kit in the studio and the rest was for show.[/quote]


haha...no way! I never knew the man...but if there is one that that I know...Keith Moon never did half of anything...and CERTAINLY never did things just for show.

His bass drums are turned around, so they read: WHO THE. This was done because they were in Twickenam studios, it didn't matter..they're interchangeable. Half the set is obsructed by the wall..I've seen another picture somewhere, I'll try to dig it up. It shows the whole kit.

Cheers,

Didn't mean to imply that he only "really" used half. I've seen clips of his performances and I know that there was never anything that went only halfway with him. It just looked like that was all that he used in the studio as you cannot see any of the rest of the kit. As it is, I stand corrected.

Yep! I believe what I did was register for a free "personal" account, but that was some time ago. You should still be able to sign up with bogus info, save for e-mail address, etc.
