ok, let me know if you change your mind. Thanks! Peter

The set goes for about $750 new on ebay including shipping...How about $600 plus whatever it costs you to ship? Peter

Do they come with any extras? Windscreen, cases, shock mounts, clips, etc...let me know and I'll shoot you back a number. Thanks, Peter

I don't really have an instructor...I taught myself guitar so I figured I should be able to teach myself drums as well and just rely on my friends to tell me when I'm doing something tragically wrong. But I AM playing, every day for about an hour total. I can't play for much longer than 20...

If anyone has any or all of these mics, I'm in the market for them. Looking for Rode NTK and NT4 and Shure SM58's. I'd like mics in VERY good condition or better, but they don't have to be brand new. Let me know what you've got and what price you're looking for. Thanks! Peter

I know this is a recording website and all...but I just bought a drum set and I was wondering if someone could help me out with a few bits of technique. First, if I'm keeping a beat with the hi-hat and I release it, do I want to hit it with the sticks when I lower it back down, or should I...

I'm looking for a complete drum set with at least a kick, snare, two high toms, floor tom, high hat, crash, ride, all the necessary hardware, and hopefully a throne. I'm hoping to find a Pearl Export set, but I would consider other sets as well. I live in Southeast Michigan, so this is...

I think this type of collaboration works well. As long as you can communicate well and be expressive with the others, no one has to compromise their style and everyone can pool resources into developing a more refined sound than one might come up with on his or her own. Aside from my own...

I left it wide open intentionally because I didn't have any clue what sort of response I was going to get. Thank you all for the info. I'm primarily looking for something I can use on this tour. I plan on getting a laptop down the line and already have the hardware and software I would need...

I generally turn my monitors off when I'm recording...is there a reason you need them on?

I'd like to have recordings of some of the best shows for feedback and just to enjoy, and I would put some of the live tracks on the website. Also, a lot of music festivals are interested in hearing live recordings so they know how you interact with the crowd. Peter

I'm looking for something that I can bring with me on tour to record shows. Ideally I want something small and cheap with RCA ins and outs so I can feed directly from the PA system, and I would like at least some capabilities for setting input levels. Format and other features aren't too...

I'm heading back on tour in a week. The fall schedule is pretty intense, 80 + shows and about 20,000 miles on the road. I'd love to meet some of you out there; I'm trying to gain a sense of what it is other people in similar situations do. We're starting in the northeast, then the midwest...

None of the titles you suggested strike me as catchy. They're all founded on somewhat cliched expressions. If you want to grab people's attention you should try and think of something witty or clever and original. I think you may have ignored a piece of your own wisdom, however, which is that...

Thanks RC and lyk...those examples are both very helpful. I doubt I'll get anything written before the tour starts back up, but if I do I'll post it for feedback.

When I say that certain festivals seem traditional, it's because they are self-described that way. I write a lot of folky tunes, but I have influences from a lot of other genres and a lot of my music doesn't fit in with what I sense they are seeking. I'll probably apply to many of them...

Where would you go about posting on Craig's list? No category seems to be particularly well-suited to soliciting journalists. On another note, if you're interested in artists presenting their acts to you, I'll be in Chicago on October 10th at the hideout. Check out the website for more...

I'm looking for any decent listing of music festivals around North America so I can try and apply as a performer. My searches on the internet have come up with events that are either too high-profile or too traditional. I'm primarily searching for folk festivals, but anything that would accept...

Along those lines, I'm having trouble writing a bio. I guess I can't get around the awkwardness of writing about myself, so I was wondering if other people have examples they would be willing to share. I might also try exploring various other musicians websites to see what i find. Paco, you...

Normally many studios will bring in apprentices or interns, though I've never heard of someone so young working in a situation similar to what you're describing. I think it's worth a shot, but make sure you're really on top of presenting yourself...know what you want to get out of the...
