On my homepage are pics of a wooden Rogers snare drum I picked up. It sounds incredible but I can't determine if it is a Holiday or Powertone model. The serial number and model paper inside are gone. There is a notation that it was repaired at the Drum Shop in Detroit, Michigan on December 29, 1961. I am hoping someone could help me identify the model. I am leaning toward a Hoilday modal but I know nothing about Rogers drums having been a Ludwig dude in my youth Fri, 30 Apr 2010 07:35:48 CST eric@drummerhangout.com http://www.drummerhangout.com/topic/13925 I was wondering if anyone had a line on where to get a 5 hole 2.3mm triple flanged or diecast hoop in 12" diameter. I have a Gretsch Catalina Jazz kit that has a 5 whole rim on the mounted tom and I was thinking of upgrading the kit with heavier hoops but I can't find them anywhere. I know Gretsch uses them but where do they get them? Mon, 29 Mar 2010 04:44:16 CST eric@drummerhangout.com http://www.drummerhangout.com/topic/11630 I guess I'll sign up here too! [:p] Better go get me a photo of me drums for my avatar..

But I've learned a lot from the other "Instruments-I-don't-play" Hangouts, and I'm sure I will here, too. Just to include at least some actual drum content, I was in New Orleans a few months ago visiting a friend, and we went to see Johnny Vidacovich and his band. I'm not too knowledgable about either jazz or drumming, but I really enjoyed the show. I sat right at the stage kind of behind Johnny and got to closely watch what he was doing, something that is rarely the case with drummers. Thu, 19 Nov 2009 15:22:13 CST
