sticker Likely not an official item, but nice and not to expensive. So I bought a couple of them to decorate boring surfaces. |
my powerbook Well, not such a bad idea to program a Simmons screensaver and wallpaper site-area? |
When two worlds collide Have I already mentioned that I play in a successful country show band? ;-) |
button I found this little candy on Ebay for about 1,50 Euro. In the "Complete Simmons Drum Book" Rick Allan of Def Leppard wears a badge like this so I assume this should be an official promo article |
Big Mac I have always been waiting for a Tripple Mac. At least... |
banner This banner is 82"x34" big and has likely decorated an american music store in the eighties. |
Simmons pick-a-stick Another milestone in searching for the right homepage motive. I was always in fear of damaging the wooden floor... |
space problems As I have average space for living I can only set up two kits at a time. One is always one of my SDXs, the second one depends on my mood. All others have to wait until there time has come. |
munitions dump Fortunately my family and me moved into a little house where Dad (that's me!) got his own 30 square meter basement where I build a small studio with drum cabin and of course a place to keep my Simmons stock. Who needs daylight?? However no need to store my gear at my father's house anymore. |
SDX turkish I got my second SDX from the drummer of a turkish dance band. He was a freak and he was intending to buy "something modern" like a V-Drum.
He is responsible for that incredibly ugly airbrush on the bassdrum. It took me a couple of days to clean the whole 14 piece kit. |
anarchy in the UK Looking for a nice motive for the homepage I had the idea to build a heap of pads that would fill a whole picture. All pads that are displayed are carefully arranged to some kind of M&M like sculpture. |
SDS 6 in hospital I was lucky: A british ebayer sold two broken SDS 6 which did not work anymore after a leakage of the internal battery. I got both very cheap, each one needed less than two minutes to get fixed again. A real bargain. |
Simmons sticks These sticks have likely not been manufactured by Simmons themselves, nevertheless I could not resist to buy them. |
martial arts This is the backside poster of the Pulse 2 flyer (see downloads for a HQ scan). For sure this is a piece of art the world had been waiting for. |
