This was a cool question asked in the last thread and I thought it warranted it's own thread.

Back in the 80's when I always had a roady for my regionally successful New Wave band, Tao Chemical,
I always used to drive my techs crazy because I constantly changed my drum (and electronics and keyboard)
set ups for every gig.

I still love to break it up a bunch, but I mostly do that by cymbal choices (I get bored easily) and
, in particular, snare drum choices on gigs.

Over the years, I've amassed a nice collection of very versatile snare drums (from custom built 6",8" and 10" 'jungle/hip hop* snares
to field marching drums and coliseum drums.

I just love snares. I even played a lot with my wife's band, Lackadaisy with a weird but fun set that had 7 snares (and no toms)
on it...............all set up to look like a normal drum set in sizes, but used, specifically, to reproduce the sound of individual songs
of the record I produced for them (which I didn't play the drums on, Sue Cole had that honor)

That was a kick. I also had three sets of hi hats 8" 12" and 16" to simulate different production aesthetics.

Boy, did you have to remember to turn the snares off on THAT kit.

How about you all: How frequently do you change the configuration of your drumset when playing out.
