Iam playing Santa to a few lucky kid's this year.I just got done loading up my truck about an hour ago it's 12.30 A.M with 7 complete drum set's.Now these set's are newer one's M.I.T. that i put together replaced the heads with new heads/cymbal's ete to each set.Now iam going to make these kid's a happy christmas.Iam going to be driving about 500 or so miles by the time iam done.All for christmas..This is why it's a present to me just to see photo's from the Dad's and Mom's-{when they send them to me]- when the kid's come down only to fine a drum set that they have been askin for christmas.That's why i do this every year!!!!! it makes me fell so good inside passing the gift of music on to kid's who would not be able to do so...B.T.W. the kid's are 2 Girls and 5 Boy's age's from 11 to 13 year's old.....Mikey

Awesome! I couldn't imagine getting a new set when I was a kid, I got a pair of hi hats for Christmas when I was young and that was the best!
I hope you have a merry Christmas!

So there is a Santa after all. Great story to wake up to, Mikey.
Happy Holidays! Everyone
Merry Christmas Mikey. That's a wonderful thing your doing today. Have a great time. :Santa:
Not a guru just havin fun with some old dusty drums.
Mike, I hope some day we can meet in person so I can shake your hand and pat you on the back. What your doing is so kind. Those boys and girls are going to be so happy. Have a safe trip and when you get back I think we would all enjoy hearing more about this. How did you find these kids?
Merry Christmas Mikey!!!

once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.
In native American culture a rich man was judged by what he gave away not what he owned you sir are a rich man ,enjoy every minute the gift of a child's smile is priceless thank you Mikey.... peace and merry Christmas...
