What I like most about his drumset, is that he can play anything at any time with either hand because it's set up that way.

That's pretty darn awesome.

30 pages worth of posts!!!

Finally, unequivocal proof that Dream Theater rules all forums-- not only the MP, DT, and Pearl ones...

Give it up fellas, the charade of Vinnie-loving, GRP-fanboyism has finally been exposed for what it is-- subconscious love of 19/16 for the sake of 19/16.

Now go out and add a 2nd and 3rd bass drum to your set up, and don't be ashamed. :D

That drumset is actually offensive. 3 underpriviledged kids (at LEAST) could each get a full set off of this. Problem is that we have heard Mangini on a small kit in the vid from the MD Fest and it was unbearable. This says alot.

I heard Mangini got the deluxe option. Comes with A/C and AM/FM radio, but he ditched the bucket seats.

I like that he can play the same on the right as well as the left.

I like rock drummers who get big sounds out of small sets...guys like Matt Cameron are great for that.

It appears the Mikes (both Portnoy and Mangini) both take after the Neil Peart school of "more is more." Well, no, not necessarily (IMO.)

At least Bozzio CAN sound great on a small kit...

These types of bands and drummers can inspire kids to become musicians because they're so over-the-top in so many ways. Hopefully, once these kids play for a few years, their curiosity will lead to them to discover other artists via their own investigation, or via reading about the influences of their "heros".
