Good God, man! That'll be some project. Maybe grab some Sabian polish at the same time? 😜
I sure wish I could see your bandmates faces when you tell them you 'just need a moment to swap heads'. Mind you, that's payback for years of 'Shhhh.....can't you see I'm tuning....?'
Wishing you a fine show!
Had something similar about 6 years ago. Worked out OK. Some nerve damage so loss of feeling down front of leg and some reduction in flexibility but all in all a success story.
Follow all the guidelines and do exactly as advised
It's ok, my band mates bitch at me about the PATINA on my cymbals, but to me it's like that on a watch dial -- shows the history. 😁
My view tonight
I used to play with a guy who had an old 30" ride. He claimed that he buried it in the sand for a year. It's tone was amazing.
So I'm guessing, OF watercooler, a place to shoot the shit kinda thing😀, so questions, anybody got any metal in them?
I took a bit of a tumble 3 weeks ago while skiing, ended up with this, left tibia fractures.
Anybody got something similar, how did it work out? I'm all good, just need to be patient now, fortunately time I have so one day at a time.
Cheers

30” ride? I thought 24” was the largest ride cymbal. Holy shit what a beast.
Me? I’ve owned my 20” USA Zildjian K since 1980. Many producers have mentioned it’s one of the best they’ve heard. I’d likely sell all my gear before getting rid of it. Kinda like my first OF purchase. 😉
My daughter was involved in a very serious equestrian accident a few years ago. She was thrown from a horse during competitive jumping. She and the horse hit the ground hard and then the 1,100 pound horse rolled over on her while trying trying to get up. She fractured three vertebrae and punctured a lung. I'll say that it ranks #1 among the most frightening telephone calls that I've ever received. She was in surgery for five and a half hours with a team of doctors and the DaVinci robot. She has a Christmas tree pattern of incision scars on her back where they went in and she has a permanent structure of titanium that in x-rays looks like a railroad track (rails running along each side of her spine with cross ties that stabilized the vertebrae while they healed). Other than some slight stiffness at times and a small loss of range of motion, she made a full recovery. I will be eternally grateful to her medical team at the University of Kansas Medical Center. She received incredibly good, compassionate care and her surgeons were the best of the best.

Always wished my parents would've let me take drum lessons. Seeing the drummer's perspective reminded me of this scene of Phil Collins on stage. Amazed at how bands like Genesis and The Grateful Dead would have 2 full drum kits on tour.
