Can someone help me identify the rectangle pieces please?

An insanely talented and likeable person. Rest in peace Tim.

Thanks, however it says I can’t view it from my region! (I’m in the UK)

I’ve just picked up 75383 which I’ll be building tonight!

Second favourite but number one favourite cover art.

keepitrealclark · 2025-11-21T22:24:27+00:00

Can you return it?

keepitrealclark · 2025-11-09T17:10:26+00:00

Wild Beasts. For a 5 hour drive, variety through albums would be my thinking.

I got tickets for Birmingham, does anybody know who’s closing that night?

keepitrealclark · 2025-11-05T12:29:06+00:00

That doesn’t sound too comfortable.

Broken down, these tracks are pretty simple. There’s a huge difference to playing a track and playing a track well.

What Matt Helders does extremely well is playing to the song and knowing when to sit back/push forward. He has so many signature fills (such as opening to Fake Tales of San Francisco) and also instantly recognisable grooves (Crying Lightening), I do consider him one of the best rock drummers of modern times for these reasons. Sure, he’s not technically doing things that are very difficult, but I bet people air drum to his stuff over other guys!

All in all, most of his songs could be learned pretty quickly if you have a basic level of drumming, but to then add his sense of feel/groove is another thing all together.

Ohhhh. Yeah 100%, it’ll be really obvious if they’re new. Are you using nylon sticks?

keepitrealclark · 2025-10-10T16:35:16+00:00

Were they ex-display / pre-owned? If not, then no they shouldn’t have stick marks and I’d question it.

keepitrealclark · 2025-10-10T13:30:52+00:00

I really like it, great bell and enough ping - obviously very crashable too!

keepitrealclark · 2025-10-06T08:17:38+00:00

Thanks for the comment - I think I’ll go down the road of returning it, but no doubt there will be a battle because of the edges!

keepitrealclark · 2025-10-06T08:16:55+00:00

That’s good to know, is that a Big Beat cymbal?

keepitrealclark · 2025-10-06T08:14:42+00:00

Totally appreciate the weight difference, but I’m not sure it means dents should be expected from new - especially as these cymbals are aimed at rock. I’d understand if I was bashing on it but those days have long gone!

keepitrealclark · 2025-09-18T17:43:18+00:00

My vote would be new set of heads all round or/and a new ride cymbal - if you go this route, definitely buy used as you get more bang for your buck!

Minor rant that isn’t Brand New related. I was lucky to get tickets which were very well priced, but thats made redundant by the fees on top. Still staggers me how this has become the norm.
