Plexiglas ain't cheap, but neither are good electronic drums.
Methinks that the electronic drums are the Final Solution.
Electronic drums remove any possibility of playing with musical
subtlety. It's like playing a bad electric keyboard when you
wanted a piano.
Next time you're around an electronic kit ask for a snare drum roll.
Ask for jazz brushes. Ask for soft beaters on tom-tom quasi
timpani.
WHich is why gOod electronic drums is an oxymoron. IF I"m paying a
drummer I expect real drums. OTherwise I can do waht those electronic
drums can do with a rack mounted drum module.
