    Lot of people don’t realize chris warren is basically the hidden 5th member of the chili peppers, he started with them as a roadie and became their main aux instrumentalist for their shows. He’s been a performing member of the band for like twenty years.

    Still have my older Pearl Maple/Mahogany kit. It's the perfect wood combination. Gives just a little added low end without being too overbearing to the maple. Pearl was smart enough to discontinue it, and make it part of their custom line, to my dismay. Beautiful kit! Glad to see chad go with Paiste as well. The Signature and Modern Essentials line is exquisite.

Neil Peart had custom hardware plating for his kits. I doubt Neil's drum tech had to find a custom plater independent of DW for those kits. If anybody from DW sees this, feel free to comment. I'd be interested to know more about it.
