Tkodrumma · 12-18-2013, 09:05 AM

Hey guys!!
Just wanted to introduce myself real quick! My name is Nikao and I'm an avid lover of all things music! I have very eclectic taste. I'm a professional musician and grew up playing and listening to gospel, jazz and r&b but now play in a country/southern rock band! Lol! Some of my favorite bands/artists are: Stevie Wonder, Earth Wind and Fire, Chicago, Miles Davis (2nd great quintet),Return to Forever, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Frank Zappa, Genesis, the Allman bros., Yes , Steely Dan and the list goes on.... Like miles Davis, I believe that there's only two types of music: good and bad and I'm on a ever ending quest to find as much good music as possible!!

I really appreciate forums like these and look forward to getting to know you guys!!

Welcome. a fellow skin hitter, fair enough a differing style but a skin hitter none the less.

Welcome to the forum and the soon to be standard drummer question Stick Size and Kit set up?

Hey Lenny!
Thanks a lot! I play vater's Hitmaker stick (Pretty much a glorified 5A lol) I play a Four piece DW performers series kit with a pearl Dennis Chambers model snare and I use zildjian A's and K customs. How about yourself?

Stick size 5A Promark's. New Kit is en route but I ordered a Pearl 5 piece with my added Tama Piccolo snare and I use Sonar Stage ready Hi-Hat, 16" Crash and 22" Ride with an added 14" Zildjian AA Crash and a Zildjina 8" Splash. Kick Pedal is a Tama Chain driven as I have a better feel for them than Pearl Pedals.
