Really love these cheap gift videos! I think that, obviously, drums, sticks, cymbals and drum heads are still great gifts, but these videos give me ideas for things to buy for myself. Thanks, and keep it up!
I can recommend the "K&M 12150" (from König & Meyer) Laptop stand, if 200 bucks are not in the budget. This one is very stable and very portable to transport. I whould prefer the K&M to the Meinl.
Hii @rdavidr! I’m in the market for a drum rug right now and was wondering if you could tell me what are the measurements/dimensions for the rugs ur using at 5:54 and 5:55? Would mean a lot. Thanks!
If you are going to invest in a new throne, i, & my old back, would STRONGLY recommend getting one with a backrest ! A little more awkward to move around, but your back will thank you after your first long-duration gig ! ! J
Hello. I have A Steve Smith bass drum practise pad, wich I have easily converted into a percussion bassdrum-stand, by replacing the pad with a bendt floortom leg. I can mount every wingnut-mounting percussion instruments to it and hit it with a bassdrum beater. I want a foot trasher like Thomas Lang has, and thought you could make something similar with your ribbon trasher?
I remember watching a video once with drummer Ray Luzier in a long interview Drum Clinic MI Conversation Series where he tells you not to use the metronome too often as you don't really get your own rhythm and it all can be too robotic.
Hey dave, I dont know any drummers in my life besides my teacher and I always forget to ask her questions. I'm fairly new. Can I ask you, what is the tack thing that goes on your bass drum where the kick kits and what does it do?
Kick pad. Prolongs the life of the bass drum head, and gives you a little bit more of a clicky sounding attack (which may or may not be preferable depending on the style)
Hey, now I know this is completely unrelated to the video, but I think it would be a cool video if u tried to make a metal snare out of cymbals, idk I was just studying and thought of this and thought I should share it
Bro I need the help to but I assume that u use a key and tighten all the lugs. Cuz the tighter the head, the higher pitched the sound is aswell as being louder and not ring out for as long
Trap table is good but personally I have zero need for a lap top. Also,make sure that if you play Pro make sure they don't gift you a Vic Firth stick bag😬
A job, some pants, toothpaste, a mullet, someone to feed me grapes, better taste in music, one giant drum stick for security, an authentic Bill Clinton Limited Cigar, a bottle of booze and some cheap sunglasses.
Thanks for the video and links, both are helpful and very much appreciated!! You also might want to consider changing the links in the description to the same products on actual drum shop websites, rather than the towering corporate behemoth that is Amazon.com. It helps keep the drumming world alive & the independent drum shops that we know and love in business!

What are some other gift ideas that you would be stoke to get?
first to reply lol
A new guitar
Hi David. Just wondering what audio interface you use
@@dgmwitz same
I'd love to see you upload more often. You have motivated me to do a deep clean of my kit.
“This list will be short.”
*Lists off a ton of stuff at different price options*
David is the best.
John Kick lol, it seemed shorter in my head
I want an RdavidR beard for Christmas.
Hell yeah.
Heck yeah
Yeahhhhhh
FUCK YEah
Every Christmas, my parents get me a few pairs of sticks. I've been playing for 10 years, and every year, my dad gets the wrong size 😂
Same
size doesn’t matter
@@donosvann kinda yeah
People have preferences
I know the feeling
Mine accidentally cot me 5A instead of 7A a few years back and I’ve been playing with 5As since
Meinl: Doesn't make a Drum Throne.
'Sees this video'
Meinl: Coming Spring 2020 the new Meinl Drum Throne.

Nobody:
Drummers:
(A Normal Laptop Stand that is cheap) "Nahhhh"
(A drum laptop stand that is worth $200) "Where is my wallet?"
I mean they're alot more durable. They also go up higher and look cooler
All I want for Christmas is those Dual Hats. 😍😍😍
So glad you made this
Drum lessons from Steven Taylor would be nice this year.
William Robertson: As long as he takes a minute to talk about shop safety.😂
Hey sir david can you make a video about your 2019 drum and recording setup
The best gift for a drummer is cold hard cash. Dont buy me drum stuff, its probably the wrong thing anyway.
Don't u love the way the bling ring goes back in to the centre of the cymbal after hitting it
You are quite the salesman. Merry Christmas bud.🙏🏼
Wow what i really need the most is the stick bag
XTHE VIEWERX tackle instrument makes dope stick bags
Love the black dot heads!
I've been using vintage Simmons SDSV pads as a trap table xD
Hey Dave! Super helpful video!It would be great if you could make a video on what audio interfaces are best (for recording drums or anything really)
Yep these items are all on my bucket list.
Lots of great ideas! I know a drummer that will be getting some of these items for Christmas.
I can recommend the "K&M 12150" (from König & Meyer) Laptop stand, if 200 bucks are not in the budget.
This one is very stable and very portable to transport. I whould prefer the K&M to the Meinl.
2nd floor tom??
😎
Cant wait for the fourth one.
lol
Great list, can't go wrong with stick bags. Would add ear protection. Even cheap over the year 'phones are better than nothing.
Thanks David, sending this link to all my friends & family.Oh,&drummers. Have a Merry X-mas&a Happy New year !Subscriber since your first post!
You should see the sound brrener vibreting metronom its soo cool and i think you will prefer this one on the one you have now
Hii @rdavidr! I’m in the market for a drum rug right now and was wondering if you could tell me what are the measurements/dimensions for the rugs ur using at 5:54 and 5:55? Would mean a lot. Thanks!
Those Vintage Superstars are the perfect gift!
I need the two middle ones in tune and a kick bass drum and a dr beat and a drum throne
5:23 Deftones - Swerve City
Niiiiiiceeee groooooves maaaan!!! Keep it up!!!
Man,thanks for this video. Great job.
The past years i all got something off the list of these videos so thats pretty fuckin cool
Good stuff there Dave !!!
I really want a drum rug like the one you’re using in this video but I can’t find one like that
I love this videos 😍
Good job and keep doing what you're doing
That is an Audun Kleive -amount of gaffer tape that you have on your snare during the laptop holder -bit. I approve.
I wanna see u da a tour of all of ur kits
That kit is fire 🔥 my man
Great ideas as per usual David
Damn ur drum sound and mix has improved a lot
Could you make a "top ... cymbal set review". I would really appreciate that, because I need a cymbal set where the sounds "fit" each other:)
Killer sound man!!! 💪🏻😎🦄
If you are going to invest in a new throne, i, & my old back, would STRONGLY recommend getting one with a backrest ! A little more awkward to move around, but your back will thank you after your first long-duration gig ! ! J
Dave, you rock!!

Could you make a video about those wood diffusers behind your kit, please?
Thanks David❤️

What audio interface do you use?
its an old M-Audio 2626 I recently got a new one which Ill switch out in the new year.
What kind of earpieces/ headphones do you use? I want a better setup for playing to music but not sure what's out there.
Stick bag is a great cheap present that most beginning drummers like myself overlook!
Hi nice video! what kind off drumhead are you using on your Superstar snare? thanks
When are you gonna paint the damn Tom on the $20 drum set?!? J/K... just rewatched that series 😂
I love these videos

@@perpetualgrimace cheers man
What did you use to screw the table on the cymbal stand? The piece between both of them... ?
a tom mount. I have an old video on making one. I talk about a few ways to mount them ruclips.net/video/ki2a_ztObVc/видео.html
Do you have a video on those diffusers?
David u should try and make normal symbal and see haiw it sounds
Just waiting for that meinl announcement soon haha
Do a vid on the laptop stand build
Nice gifts you made there, just realized you are using the same ride as me, with the hi hat I think it's also the same, but I am not sure, 15"?
The beard is really growing👍
Hey man i was wandering what is your favorite kinda music to play on drums?
Meinl is so much better than all the other brands
Cases are certainly a “sound” investment.
Duuuude what rug is that at 2:51?? I like it!
I got it off facebook marketplace, I have no clue what kind it is tho....
Aw man :/ I like it actually!
Our school has that hardware case. We call it our “AuxBox”
Hey, now I know this is completely unrelated to the video, but I think it would be a cool video if u tried to make a metal snare out of cymbals, idk I was just studying and thought of this and thought I should share it
Was there an update on your new studio desk? If so, which video has it?
Im making some changes to the studio in the new year. One of which will be the desk! Be on the look out for another desk video then 👍
I would like those earthworks mics you still haven't talked about.
Good video David
How do you move your drum set to a gig? I want to know that 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Pedro Fernández Percusión honestly I don’t gig much and when I do there’s a house kit 😉
How often do you tune your drums? Or how do ypu keep them in tune? Everybody is welcome to anwser this question. Thank you in advance kind stranger.
Bro I need the help to but I assume that u use a key and tighten all the lugs. Cuz the tighter the head, the higher pitched the sound is aswell as being louder and not ring out for as long
I’m not paying almost 200 for a device that beeps when I can just use RUclips since they have metronomes on there
Elite Clone kid or the myriad of phone apps and cheap metronomes on the market already
strange how Rugs are one of the BESt gift! OR drum cases. I got my dad brand new kick drum case,
Some lighter stands and a spare hihat clutch!
rdavidr Do you do cajon videos?
I'm hoping for cymbals for Christmas
How about the wicked awesome RDR hoodie...
Luv ya vids
Ya!...4th to comment too!:)
Maybe I missed before but where'd you score all those Printers Trays on wall there?
I want a drum set
Make a video of gifts for drummers that play on a e-kit
I have a spare snaredrum stand that I use for my laptop
Ate quem fim vídeo novo 🙏
Got something from last years video so !
I'm not a drummer nor I know of any drummer but here I am I suppose... nice
Trap table is good but personally I have zero need for a lap top. Also,make sure that if you play Pro make sure they don't gift you a Vic Firth stick bag😬

I just use a bell kit as a trap table
idk I'd love a new cymbal or drum xd
I want another 20$ drumset video for my christmas gift.
A drum set would be nice I guess
a set of cymbal practice pads
Please don't buy a metronome for your drummer friend or family member, there are plenty of under 5 dollars, even free, metronome apps.
A pair of brushes for Jazz or playing your drum kit quietly
