Did a rather large show this week with the "Times Square Quartet", which also featured Jimmy Mazz and Janice Dee. This was a full show to a SOLD OUT room holding a little over 1000! Because there were two shows, I opted to play my "little" Rogers Jazz/Be-Bop set as I knew there would be professional sound reinforcement/lights. There was, and this "little" set of Rogers sounded HUGE! I could actually hear the 14X18 bass drum out the mains!
Many have seen these at different times since I have been here, but for those that haven't and like vintage Rogers drums, hopefully you will enjoy! Specs:
1965 Rogers
14X18
8X10 .. actually an orphan XP8 that I converted by adding rings ..
14X14
5X14 COB "special" Powertone .. this drum is a 1968 and has an unusual interior ..
Complete Rogers hardware
I also have the 8X12 that came with this set originally, but usually opt to play the 8X10 for a little more "spread" tonally.
The "chrome" garland at the back of the stage was bizarre!, but looked nice from the front, and especially so with the lights!
