I've got a DW kit and I've currently got coated ambassador heads on them but I'm likely gonna put some G2's on them. Maybe they would sound like Pridgen's drums then. I like his sound in some of his videos and I think he was using pinstripes.

Actually I heard that Vic Firth is now making the Zildjian sticks which would be a good thing. I heard it from the Hoppe's at Cadence Drums in Rochester, NY.

Working drummers use heads. The working guys I know buy in bulk. I probably log 10-20x the playing hours as you. Gi...

I wonder if there will be dancers?
