Bob Gatzen has done a bunch of online videos for Evans, including a series on tuning -- see below.

There's a whole bunch more out there, from Bob and other guys. Resources like YouTube and Google Video are great for stuff like this! There's no substitute for spending time with your kit and a drum key, but these guys have figured out what works for them and can help get you pointed in the right direction.

Keep your options open.... there's more than one way to skin a cat.

Or tune a drum.

Or tuna cat, or skina drum.

Or make a BLT sandwich.

there's more than one way to spank a monkey,
