Through these years there have been drums sets that come and go.
From expensive to exotic, from sunlite to slingerland. there have been relatively few that really stand out.
Wondering through the interwebs like i do, i came across a forum that has a nice listing of ridiculously massive drum sets. lots of good information on the forum, even a set that's got everything, including a kitchen sink!
Some of my gavs from this list are: Terry Bozzio's (giving the church organist a run for her money on the pedal usage), Mike Portnoy's Eric Carr's *Tank Set*, and Tony Roysters Jr's Tony's has an interesting lift-kit on the bass drums for some reason. Not sure how it workds, but it looks interesting. im sure that turnpike's drummer could really do a number on any one of these, especially if it was painted glow-in-the-dark hot pink.
My all-time favorite drum set award (and stage construction) goes to the trap used by the visual timekeeper himself, robert sweet in the video "always there for you" from the in god we trust album in '88. The quad-bass , right-hand, left-hand Dark set was the drum set I took my cues from when it came time to purchase my first set.
Feel free to add your interesting drum set observations to the comments, I'd like to take a gander at 'em.
