Well keeping with the 70's drummer in the 60's theme. Here's Peter Crisscoula (Peter Criss) of KISS with his RadioKing set. He was a big fan of Gene Krupa and a Slingerland guy before Pearl got his number.

Even if it is a house kit, can you imagine the beating he must have given to that Sonor piccolo snare?

Here's another Bonzo pic. Someone told me these were Sonor drums but I can't tell. Pretty shure they aren't Ludwigs though.[Attachment: 84462]
