My neighbour across the road just bought his 8 year old son a 2nd hand
Sonic drive MIT kit for him to learn on. We had a BBQ at our place a while
back and I let Kye (the 8 yr old lad) have a hit on my Slingys, now he's fallen
in love with drums.
The neighbour came over this morning to ask my help with setting up the kit,
No probs! So I go over, set them up and do a quick tuning job and got the kit sounding
not too bad (for what they are), but the cymbals that came with the drums where absolute crap, so I went back home and dug out a set of Pearl CX cymbals, 14 hats,16 crash, and 20 ride, and said to the lad here you go they're all yours. Even though these pies are pretty ordinary they are streets ahead of the garbage can lids that came the kit.
The look on the boy's face was priceless! Saucer eyes and ear to ear grin,
worth a million Bucks!!
Good deed done and I feel warm inside!! flower
Cheers Stevo.
