What was your first drumset? Any DIY's if not, What was your first real kit?
Mine was mop pails for toms, a 5 gallon bucket for a bass drum and paint lids for cymbals.
It was easy to gig, just throw everything in the 5 gallon bucket. Just kidding.
Thank God it didn't take long to convince my Mom to get me a real kit.
First real kit: It cost $60.00. Was a no name , But was double bass 3 toms, 1floor, 3 snares, and 1 cymbal. I took 2 of the snares and duct taped them together to make a 4th tom.(I was 14)
It wasn't much but it was better than buckets, I think!
