The ebb and flow of time fascinates me. I can spend hours doing nothing or fucking completely off and then wonder where the time went. Then there are days like today: I read from the Gospel of John, planted and mulched 5 fruit trees, trimmed the hedges, helped my lovely wife transplant more sprouts to the raised beds, did saber drills, rendered 12 pints of bone broth, made a batch of yogurt, made a batch of kombucha, made a batch of mayonnaise, made a batch of English style mustard, made a pot roast, outfitted and ferried my youngest to lifeguard training, changed my drum heads, played on said new drum heads, played guitar, washed the car, grocery shopped, and listened to 2 in depth podcasts. Time management is a skillset that is worth tapping into.

My house kit is a little Sonor Bop. I had some Silent Strokes on it. Cool concept and my wife appreciated the comparative whisper, but the feel is just off. Was getting wrist fatigue which never happens on proper skins. Threw some Evans G1s on the toms and Reverse Dot on my Pork Pie BOB. The toms sing and the snare barks. The Germans don't make bad shit.

Very Cool. I never had a Sonor but was always a fan of their kits during the 70's

The drums are great. Wide tonality. The rack sings, the floor roars and the little 18 kick punches way above it's weight class. The hardware embodies next level intuitive functionality. Archetypal German over engineered solidness.

Its really impressive what the Drum manufacturers have been able to do over the last decade. Kits have gotten smaller yet punchier. For Many decades I played Ludwig then sold all of them off (stupidly, all original vistalite kits) and when I got back into it a few years ago I picked up a Gretsch Catalina. 4 pc 22 14 13 14. but the kit is 16 deep and really thumps. I've been very happy with them.
