how is this drum sound?

I've been working on my drum setup, mic choice, placement, etc. I can't play myself, but I want the kit good to go in case a real drummer ever comes over -- it could happen some day:

This is dry with a little level tweaking - I forgot to hit the cymbals, but maybe I'll post more soon. Anyway - any comments on this would be really really appreciated.
 
Toms 1 and two need tuning badly. Floor tom seemed better but you only hit it once and like a guitar player would. lol

Keep in mind a drummer will have a different approach and it will all sound different.
 
Thanks - it's funny I had the toms tuned to my liking and I took them to a gig last weekend - a real drummer undertook to tune them for me :). I think he made them too high pitched.
 
Thanks again - I took a stab at re-tuning them, and I think they're better:

I think I have an issue with the mic on the smallest tom - I have to look into that. At the end I did the sweetest move - the stick actually left my hand and bounced around some. I did that on purpose.
 
Thanks again -- I'll check the kick - it could just be too many mics on my part, - inside, outside, and "sub" - the sub is an old car stereo speaker - it sounds pretty flubby.
