Drums

whenever there were ceremonies or festivals.

It's a type of frame drum that has beads or rice in between its two heads. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVj888Yge7c

The Tympanic Membrane. Also, Tympanum or Myrinx.

Seriously, learn to wikipedia.

The "kettle" drum.

they're quite good actually.nowadays there are different degrees of quality amongst that particular model.

avoid any drums made of "hardwood".

quality drums are made from Birch or Maple.

older 80's exports are good sets.all you need is some good heads.

Maple and birch ARE hardwood! It really depends what sound you want. I use a Pearl forum kit with poplar for both live and recording and love it.My brother uses a dW maple kit and loves it.The secrete is in the proper tuning and finding the best heads to get the sound you want. Also how the shell is made makes a big difference. But the wood type is all in the ear of the beholder.

BTW Export drums are very good quality and durable.

The tuning of one's own drum set is completely by personal preference. I could tell you a specific pitch to tune it to, but that is only ONE way to tune a floor tom. I personally tune my snare to a B flat, my highest tom to an F, my second tom to a D, and my floor tom to a B flat an octave below my snare. However, I suggest you play around with your floor tom and a drum key and see what sound you like best. Avoid it being so low that it sounds "flubby" or "tubby"...and, on the flip side, you don't want it to sound too high and blend in with your other toms. The purpose of a floor tom is to support the bass drum.

UNTIL a drum designer or expert improves this answer, I offer an opinion. I think that drums of all nominal sizes are designed to allow for a "headspace," which is an air space above the contents, to allow for thermal expansion of the contents.

They are made of very fine wire (originally catgut) which was also used in the "snaring loop" of a small animal trap.

certainly, Tin is still being mined for typemetal, for example. Recycling has made us aware the majority of beverage cans, however are- Aluminum. Campbell"s soup uses steel cans to work with automatic can openers as do some Cat foods.

Not a beach, a harbor. He drowned in Marina del Rey, where his boat Harmony used to dock. He was searching for items that he had thrown overboard. It is suggested that he hit his head on the boat while coming up.

Zickos Drums manufactures acrylic drum sets.

"Fast Eddie" Ho, a session drummer.

a 22 x 18 bass drum is 18" long and has a diameter of 22" so its taller then it is long!

Tis is poetry about the making of a holy instrument. It was set into fantastic music by Bob Chilcott (Oxford UP)

The resonant skin.

The Talking Drum (Donno Drum) is used for musical performances and signaling or sending messages. Due to the fact that each tribe has its own language, it was difficult for the tribes to communicate verbally. The drum itself crossed language barriers and served as a common language. The drum, when hit a certain way, gives off a sound that resembles speech. That is why it is called the "Talking Drum". By using the drum, messages could be sent to far off distances.

Yes it did, he is my uncle, but he wasnt the original drummer of the band.

A main one is always "why do you want to be drum major". I was asked that.

Ion drums and drum kits can be purchased at Drum Rocker, Ion Electronic Drum Kits, New England Music Supply and Zzounds. Most of the current Ion drums and drum kits can be purchased through them at their website.

Michael Portnoy's "Mirage Monster" is a 20-piece kit.

A few guys had really large kits--Neil Peart, Joey Jordison and John Dolmayan come to mind--but Portnoy's is the king. At least one of Portnoy's kits was designed so that two players could play it at the same time--this for drum duets during Dream Theater shows.

Now, if you'd included players who weren't in any one band, Terry Bozzio's got probably the biggest kit going--the "SS Bozzio."

-If I'm not mistaken, Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chilli Peppers has a Guinness Book of World Records entry for playing the largest drum kit consisting of 308 pieces.

Terry Bozzio (Frank Zappa et al) presently tours with this kit. Not sure how big, but daunting to say the least. 21 foot pedals help run this monster

He hit his ballsack with drumsticks.

the bottom head should be tighter than the top because it bounces around and if you take it off then you take away sound... so it changes it.... the top head should only be tight enough to have no wrinkles in it
