OTHER EQUIPMENT:

Vic Firth 2B Nylon and/or Wood Tipped Stick's Live and Practice. I use 3 different models of the Easton Ahead Stick's. You are bound to see me use them at a show, (they are the black sticks) with Nylon tips, they are the 2B, Lars Ulrich, and Tommie Lee models. For acoustic gigs, Vater Acoustics, and Thunder Rods. I also use Easton, and Stick Rapp grip tape, and Easton Drummer's Glove's, Extra Large. To clean my babies, I use Zildjian Professional Cymbal Cleaning Cream, and Glas Drum and Hardware Polish.

There are many many versions of my kit, that I bring to various shows, and venue's. More than likely I don't have the same setup every night. I have approximately 10 different setup's! I just thought I would include the smallest version, and the biggest version of my kit, below.
