Bought a floor tom and a bass drum (sans kick) yesterday for just under $20. Not sure what company they are because the labels have fallen off, but they sound very nice.

Are they the only drums you have? Put egg-crate foam or a pillow in the bass drum to warm up the sound.

I have a bodrahn, a snare, two tambourines (one with a skin and one without), a splash cymbal, a trash cymbal, and whatever else I want to bang on. Until I have a kit, I'll be using the bass drum as a second floor tom, but I'll consider the pillow thing.

Grabbed this on the way out the door from the show last night.

^ That's a steal, even if you got it without the tools!

Except for the hammer and mallet, which were a buck a piece at a different garage sale, the rest were donated by my late friend who had just acquired a huge set from his neighbor who owns a welding shop and just retired. I got most of his doubles. I had lost all my tools a long time ago from a move, so this is a good start on my road back to fixing my own ****.
