I used my good ole trusty Shure Sm 57 until I won a Earthworks Sr25. Wow!! it's a high definition mic, Keith Carlock uses them exclusively listen to anything with him, the sound quality is supurb.

Your drummers not much good is he!? What you need is someone that's as good as me. ! John Henry Bonham !!

An AKG 452 or the newer 451B is my first choice.

A good economical hat/ride mic(s) is the stereo pair of Rode NT-5's...kinda like a little brother to the Neumann KM-184.
