Replacing heads for every show is not that unusual. It's also not particularly time consuming for a clever drum tech that knows how to carve out some usable space backstage earlier in the day.

For some of the more "experienced" bands, used heads become part of the freebies associated with the VIP ticket package.

Freebies? Have you seen the VIP prices? Nothing free with that ticket!
