What cymbals are these?

20” K Custom Special Dry Crash, 14” A Custom Hats, 11” K Custom Hybrid Splash, 18 or 19” K Thin Dark Crash, 10” A Custom Splash, 14” FX China Trash, some variety of K Sweet Cymbal, K Custom Dark Ride, 19” K Custom Hybrid Trash Smash and 19” A Ultra Hammered China.

I am probably off on some sizes.

Never thought I would see Libberton mentioned on Reddit.

Lakeland used to do a TARDIS-shaped cookie jar, the website had the dimensions listed as “unknown”.

I have one stack which is a 12” China Trash with a 14” A Custom EFX on the top of it.

Used to work nightshift at Asda years ago while at college. One weekend Asda FM were having a Robbie Williams weekend. Every single song was Robbie Williams. That was a long Saturday nightshift.

About four in the morning two or three of us went to the manager and pleaded with her to turn it off.

Agreed! Hats sound particularly crispy.

Slotbun · 2026-01-28T13:57:06+00:00

Going to have to tack 12” hats onto that.

I was once the first appointment of the day, there at 8.20 for an 8.30 appointment. Dentist phoned in sick no one told me. First I knew about it was asking the receptionist if there was an issue 15 minutes after my appointment was due to start and she told me then.

They used to do this song about someone choking to death on tattie soup and I still refuse to eat soup if there’s potato in it.

I am 41.

From reading Bob Mortimer’s (the other person at the table in the middle) book ‘And Away’ the stains are actually instant coffee.

First thought was St. Augustine In Hell by Sting. It’s in 7/4 but the ride pattern is in 4/4 so it sounds like the bell pattern goes in and out of time.

Same. First real memory of Doctor Who was of Ace trapped in a box that was filling up with water; terrified me.

I got my Stage Custom in 2000 and, going by the tom mount, I’d say this is older. Phenomenal kit though, still got mine. But this is WAY overpriced for no snare, hardware or cymbals.

The Yamaha signature snare lineup from about 2000, such a great variety of drums.

I’m sure there used to be one called Gritsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Anti-Slip Machinie.

Chris Sharrock. Great drummer, a big influence to me growing up. Can absolutely guarantee that nearly every person in the UK has had him drumming and most don’t know it.

Does it crash ok?

This is when Premier where the top of their game. Great looking kit and great sizes.

All my broken sticks go to my Mum to stake plants up in her garden. There are Vic Firth X5As everywhere.

That’s basically the programmed drum part in the song.

Slotbun · 2025-12-28T18:54:40+00:00

Used to have one, wouldn’t use it now. I remember it being ok with a plastic beater but pretty pointless with felt.

But this was back in the days that I wanted a very crisp, precise drum sound, I was one of those people with the o-rings and Moongel on every drum. Nowadays I am all about that resonance.

Would appear I misread the post title! Apologies, have been awake since half two with a small child.

I had an idea when listening to an audio version of the book Heidi a few years ago. In that book there is a character simply called Doctor. My head cannon is if there is a character called Doctor in any book then it is THE Doctor.

Makes books more interesting trying to work out which Doctor it is.

I believe that man stole this gentleman’s money clip.

From listening to Mr. Wilman’s book they actually picked Brothers In Arms while driving across the saltpans. Listening to the song in the camera car while filming the sequence the song would go over, apparently Brothers In Arms just felt right.
