I am a metal/alternative drummer that lives in north Texas. I am in 2 bands as a drummer and 1 band as a lead guitarist. I haven't had a set for very long, I only have a 5-piece Gretsch and a pair of hi-hats, but i'll be puting most of the money I make into my drum set so i'll probably get a crash, a ride, and a splash not too long from now.
