The nice thing was the adaptability of the Rogers Memriloc hardware. I just love the stuff. I regret selling my Memriloc cymbal stands, now. I think it's the best traveling hardware I've ever used. But, yeah, the 14" bass drum thing was an experiment that happened to work out in this particular example. I wouldn't say that I would recommend them, though. It's just that the 14" bass drum in this space works very well because I can play it similarly (force-wise) to how I would play a more traditional size bass drum and never have to worry about playing too loudly. It's kinda like the difference between lighting off a firecracker inside a room as opposed to lighting off a stick of dynamite! A traditional sized bass drum would be like a stick of dynamite in this particular space. I have played an 18" bass drum and a 20" bass drum in there, too, but I ended up pulling my punches instead of just playing. It kinda looks weird to see a grown man sitting behind a 14" bass drum....but wth...The Band

I think that's a first. I've used a 16" bass, but a 14"! On tiny stages, it might just be the thing. I still use the Gretsch Catalina Jazz with the 18" BD for gigs. It isn't one trip though.
Great tiny kit! Bowing

Very Cool set up O-Lugs. I like what looks like a custom made riser you have for the 14" too. Very unique. Jumping2

Nice microkit and nice photo.
Better to use a drumkit as a guineapig than a guineapig as a D' Drummer
I haven't managed to get down to a 14" bass yet, but I can handle a 15" now.
