He appears to be using one of these (only a dw model):

Highly cool :D

 

From what I saw it's a regular hat stand and since he can't get at the pedal it just functions as an X-hat.

 

Hey hey.

 

Just a quick question, if you look at This (Paul Gilbert, Scarified Video) am I right in thinking that the drummer has a set of closed hats mounted on the right of his kit(His floor tom I think).

 

I've always thought about having a normal set and a closed set of hats in a kit for double bass but never seen it before, is that what he's doing?

 

Marco Minemman! Double bass is lame, though.

EDIT: A little edit from watching the SS USA clip:

the campus invasion tour from a year ago? I wanna see that one again...that one was good! :yesey:

 

Its not on youtube - anyone got a copy of it?

 

Right...well Ive always played it this way:

HH|x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|
HT|---------x-----x|
FT|xxx---x-x-x---x-|
SD|----X--x----X---|
BD|x--x-------x----|

 

(the larger X's on the snare being flams)

but doing some research to back me up I watched the pinkpop version and it looks as though his hand doesnt carry on on the floor tom after the second flam. It looks as though hes playing this:

HH|x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|
HT|---------x-----x|
FT|xxx---x-x-x-----|
SD|----X--x----X---|
BD|x--x-------x----|

This is excatly the same (bar one stroke of the floor tom) and sounds identical.

Has anyone noticed that in the gallery on the starlight dvd on the drum mixdown: it bares no relation to what Dom plays on the record or what he does live, totally different beat.....whats going on there???

 

yeah i noticed that. i even started a thread about it. the conclusion was: "it happens"

 

:stunned:

 

It turns OUT That the full instrumental mix on the starlight DVD has dom playing that way....but every other version of starlight (live / single / album etc) is the way we all know and love. :)

ah rite. it was whilst they were on the MTVu Campus invasion tour - if you went on the MTVu website you could stream muse videos of them playing in some state somewhere in america....it was a really good video! :D

 

and after watching that video, it seems as though he starts off like this:

HH|x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|
HT|-x-------x-----x|---------x-----x|---------x-----x|---------x-----x|
FT|x-x---x-x-x-----|xxx---x-x-x-----|xxx---x-x-x-----|xxx---x-x-x-----|
SD|----X--x----X---|----X--x----X---|----X--x----X---|----X--x----X---|
BD|x--x-------x----|x--x-------x----|x--x-------x----|x--x-------x----|

(exactly the same as my tab but instead of three floor toms its floor-hi-floor.) He then does carry on playing the way I tabbed:

HH|x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|
HT|---------x-----x|
FT|xxx---x-x-x-----|
SD|----X--x----X---|
BD|x--x-------x----|

 

The Earls Court version (off the DVD) is a good one to watch him by...

I'll take your word for it this time around. :happy: He only uses two toms?

 

thats the thing....he has two floor toms. The chances are he does use both of them - so in THAT case - if you have two floor toms - then hes gonna be playing this:

HH|x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|
HT|-x-------x-----x|---------x-----x|---------x-----x|---------x-----x|
MT|----------------|x---------------|x---------------|x---------------|
FT|x-x---x-x-x-----|-xx---x-x-x-----|-xx---x-x-x-----|-xx---x-x-x-----|
SD|----X--x----X---|----X--x----X---|----X--x----X---|----X--x----X---|
BD|x--x-------x----|x--x-------x----|x--x-------x----|x--x-------x----|

 

I just merged both floor toms into one....:D

It's not bad at all for a beginner. Keep it up! But not too much, I want to remain a better drummer than you, you guitarist :LOL:;)
