  • @drumming08 idiot this is tommy's tech tommy plays what this guys sets up for him

  • your mounted tom is quite large :)

  • To get the drum to drop in tone you need to have the resonant head looser than your batter head. That way the tone starts like the top head is tuned, and ends similar to the tuning of the bottom head.

  • the kick/snare is tuned to the key of the song....get it tight

  • I want to learn from Tommy!!!!!
