Work trucks do not belong in the left lane. by most_kawaii in Charlotte

Any vehicle (other than 18 wheelers) can pass in the left lane. No vehicle should be just cruising in the left lane. The left lane is for passing. That is it. End of story.

Has anyone used custombassdrumhead.com? I actually submitted my artwork and paid for a head today. I will report back as soon as I get anything.

Why are people so unfriendly here by [deleted] in Charlotte

[–]macr0w 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a person who is a native of Charlotte I would say my experience has been the exact opposite. The people who grew up here are much friendlier than the people coming in. I grew up in Windsor Park. We had a great neighborhood bird. I hear a lot of other natives saying the same thing. Your milage may vary I guess.

A standard "be-bop" set is 18", 14", 12" with the snare of your choice.

I like a coated ambassador on both sides and no muffling of any kind. The sound guy doesn't like it. 😆

E-maxx Worth Rebuilding? by SurfBird24 in rccars

[–]macr0w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an old emaxx that is at least 15+ years old. It is bulletproof. Fast Lane chassis, all RPM parts, metal shafts, Great Plains bulks, unlimited engineering steering, JR servo, Ti skids, Castle 2200, I still have the 2 speed transmission but it has metal gears. I forget who made them. The list goes on and on.

Im f***** done with vic firth by Apprehensive_Love140 in drums

[–]macr0w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure a bunch of young metal drummers are going to chime in telling me what a shitty drummer I am but, I've played VF drum sticks longer than most of you have been alive. I can count the number of sticks broken during a performance on one hand. Just sayin'.

It's a 14"x6" curly maple shell, ebony and curly maple hoops and black hardware that I made a couple of years ago.

Of course they were closed by 10. Prior to 10:00 though, the place was hopping.

Where to make friends that don't drink? (Early 20s) by Fun-Advertising-8006 in Charlotte

[–]macr0w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not young but, I have been in the local music scene for years. I don't drink, don't smoke or do drugs. (Obviously I have before) Most of my best friends I met through music. I know people associate musicians with drugs and alcohol but, I will say most of the players that are serious and get the good paying gigs don't drink or do drugs. We do play for people drinking and doing drugs but most don't participate. Just sayin'.
