3pc set anyone???

[reueldrums]

lately i've been playing a 3 piece drumset ( 1bassdrum, snare and a floor tom) i've seen drummers in music video using that kind of setup but i think its just for show or for personal reason... but for me im gonna start playing with these set every gig.... hehehe..

share kayo what do you think.... baka may mga ganun din dito.... happy drumming!!!

sinubukan ko rin yung 3pc. setup dito lang sa house dati. mas mapipilitan kang maging creative sa fills and overall sa drumming. pero mukhang hindi ko kaya pag sa gigs, hinahanap pa rin ng mga kamay ko kahit isang rack tom lang.

let us know how it goes sa gig. goodluck bro.

I used to do that.  Dati kasi tumutugtog kami sa isang maliit na acoustic bar.  Opting not to use a cajon and still willing to groove on a drumkit, I would take out my old kit and set it up as a 3-piece kit - a snare drum, a kick drum, and a 13" tom on my right side.  Plus, a pair of hats and a crash which doubled as a ride.

Masaya din mag-less is more from time to time.  It puts me in my "?uestlove" groove mode, and it challenges me to become more creative with a limited number of drums and cymbals.  I would also highly recommend minimalist set-ups like this as a practice set-up for working on our groove, feel, and pulse.

nasubukan ko rin mag 3pc set mga chong ang saya haha! mas groovy ako at mas maraming combination at patterns nagagawa ko kasi tatlo lang haha mas madali siya i-play eh..

yup natry ko xa once sa gig, it went well naman, nainis lang ung tech na maglagay ulit ng isang rack tom para sa ka alternate naming banda. pero right now kasi i play in sa church saturday and sunday services, 3pc set lang tlga tapos pair of hats, ride and a crash. for me, sobrang ok siya kasi it makes my drumming simple lang and focused more on the groove and the beat im doing tapos ung fills hindi sobrang complicated and i try to make it simple, pero pagtinotopak, ayun experiment ng mga fills, pero kasi if you can project and do the same "feel" of you fills and your groove having less things to hit then its an accompishment for me.

yep dabest talaga yun. nung sinubukan ko yan, diyan ko na-appreciate na marami ka pwedeng gawing tunog sa snare mo, depende kung saan at papano mo papaluin. sarap.

Pag limitado lang yung lugar....o kaya kailangan sobrang tahimik (minsan kasi tingin ng ibang tao...mas unting gamit nakakabit...mas..hindi maingay.)

[niNgpo]

pag gusto mong makita ang buong katawan mo lalo ang iyong mukhang kadalasan natatakpan ng cymbals haha!!!

[l_e_i_g_h]

Tama! yung iba nga....inaayos nila yung cymbals nila...para madali silang makita (baka naiingit lang ako sa kanila kasi mahahaba ang mga braso nila!)

pag gusto mong makita ang buong katawan mo lalo ang iyong mukhang kadalasan natatakpan ng cymbals haha!!!

yo!  saw you play in al's bar last night! ok rin set-up mo! bagay rin sa music tinutugtog niyo! i'd play more groove or play with the kick hats and snare with a 3pc set! good job!
